UGA hasn’t produced a real DL recruit in YEARS. Davis is the closest thing to it for 7 years.

Trent Thompson should have been it. He just didn't develop for whatever reason.

I guess my big complaint is it keeps being repeated that Scott has had two lackluster recruiting classes before having a good one last year, and he has only been here since February 2017. He was not here to do anything in 2017, and then had a Devontae Wyatt and Jordan Davis in his first real class, and then had Travon Walker, Bill Norton and Jermaine Johnson, Zion Logue in his last class.....all 4* players.

The reason it seems we are not doing well is we missed on some players some on here felt would come here. Understandable. I suspect we will pull Zykevious Walker and a surprise before this class is closed out.

You are contradicting yourself in your own post. Your disappointment with Scott's recruiting started in 2017. But he was hired 9 days after national signing day.

So you have 2 data points to compare. 2018, we brought on Jordan Davis who is a stud as an underclassman. It is too early to throw out Wyatt as a dud (low 4 star deserves a shot as an upperclassman before being judged).

2019, we get Travon Walker. And a solid 4 star in Norton.

Keep in mind, our nickel might only field 2 DTs if our OLBs can be stout in run support.
