NOw, ATL is made up of millions of people not from ATL or even GA... yet we have some sort of expectation for them all to be loyal to the college 60 miles to the East that many never have been to...


Unless they're a legacy to another school we should have a better shot at landing them than Auburn, right? We are still the state school only 60 miles away. While ATL and Metro are transient, they are still predominately UGA fan bases.

I would say that we do, at least as it stands now.

That doesn't mean you're going to get everyone vs. them

We currently have 13 (potentially 15) of the top 20 in state committed to us.

AU has exactly zero.

In 2016's class we got 7 of 20, AU got 4.

In 2015 we got 8. AU got 2.

AU is always (well, almost always) going to do "alright" in GA simply because they're a stone's throw away and most kids in AL are going to want to go to bama. But it's not like they're neck and neck with us. And with kirby here I don't see them seriously challenging us much either.
