Burton always impressed me when he got the looks. He was someone that I thought could have a big game against us. Would be pretty awesome if we landed him.

When healthy he always made an impact. Caught everything thrown to him and was often wide open. Hate to see him go.

I assume all these kids with Cali connections are headed back to LA to play for Riley, especially now that they got Caleb Williams.

I'm not a GA fan, so I didn't watch every game, but every GA game I saw last year (probably about 4-5 games) it seemed like he got at least one clutch catch on 3rd down each game (on top of the other catches he made).

But it seemed like every time GA needed a crucial 3rd down conversion, the ball would go to Burton.

Welcome to the new world of NIL and transfer portal. There is almost zero loyalty to Universities anymore by these young kids. His WR coach is gone, gets thrown 50/50 balls from Scoutie Stetson, and UGA has only had 1 WR in history with over 1000 yards in a season. Kid doesn’t care about the degree or friends, just going to try and make his bankroll. Welcome to NFL Jr with no rules or parameters

There’s your answer

He gets rotated in and out (all WRs do at UGA) and probably wants more chances to put up numbers for a higher draft pick.



Why is that? Who made that choice?

Wasn't Bama second for him out of high school? Not gonna lie, he's damn good.

His injury gave others a chance to earn PT and they did.
