I'm thinking the transfer portal is going to be key for UGA recruiting receivers in the near future more than any other position, and there's definitely opportunity in the Georgia WR corps. I know Justin Shorter & Tarik Black are already in.


Actually, I hope not. We have the talent and actually the numbers there with the coming class. Our biggest problem this past year came from inexperience. If our WRs buckle down and go to work this off season they can be an excellent unit. I would hate to see some of them walk away from the program because we are going after a quick fix GT.

I know we lose Cager and Simmons....anybody else? (I can't remember) We have an excellent core in Pickens, Jackson, Blaylock and Bush (If he can stay healthy) and if Robertson stays (Probably?) we could have a pretty darn good group. Especially when/if we add Rosemy, Justin Robinson and Arian Smith...IF we add Burton as some have suggested we would be pretty darn good looking to the future.

Not trying to dispute you....just thinking out loud, mainly.

Excellent is a really stretch IMO. You have 2 talented freshman, one of which is now going to be missing all of spring and who knows how much of summer and fall, a 5* transfer who hasn’t made it work for 2 years, an unproven talent in Kearis Jackson and then all the guys you mentioned who haven’t even seen the field.

I'd put Blount to the list but I heard Buck Belue talking about Jackson,Bush and Blount and wasn't high on any of em.
Kinda strange IMO since all are 4 stars.

I just don't wanna have another year we're
we get exposed with an entire posistion group but we also got killed with injuries.

I understand the sentiment, but that is just how the game is played these days. The portal will work against you; might as well let it work for you as well.

Shorter is a plus guy - perfect for what we do and the kind of player (along with an effective scheme)
that helps lure a kid like Brock V.

Also, there's no such thing as a receiver controversy. UGA plays 6-8 every game it seems. More talent means less chance is seeing Landers on the field.

. . . And we have seen injuries this season. Depth matters.
