And if we can get Devonte Watt back onboard, the current #1JUCO, the Dawgs got something brewing for the next few years at least. Top 5 class for 2018 and 2019

Wyatt is all but guaranteed at this point (4 to play 3). He's already said he's not taking any visits. He's not even going to take an OV to UGA per his last interview. We will still need at least one more DT in 2018 IMO but the upside there is we have a few in mind. I also am feeling better about our ability to take a project there given Scott's technique work thus far. Certainly have a lot more to prove this season as we enter SEC play, but our line appears to be very strong this year from a fundamentals standpoint (unless the hands to the face/facemasks continue forward... then we got problems).

Would love to see us get in the mix for a big time elite DT or two in 2019 though, given the attrition we're likely to see there over the next couple of seasons. Travon Walker looks to be a good chance for us for now. Not sure who else might be a possibility though. Actually, I guess we have a commit from 4* Rashad Cheney as well actually. Somewhere along the line I must have missed that. Those 2 would be a strong 2019 pair to grab at DT for sure.
