While there are plenty of things for us to worry about, Kirby recruiting is not one of them. We will be fine. They may not stay but he will get them here

5-star CB Jaheim Singletary sees Miami, UGA standing out after OSU decommitment

When asked if there were any other programs that he was interested in hearing from, Singletary did not shy away from calling on the defending national champions to hit him up.

“I want Alabama to come through a little more,” Singletary said. “Alabama, (Nick) Saban, to come through a little more.”

Kid seems a little demanding on his recruitment

We landed a commitment from a speedy WR named cole speer out of Calhoun. He is unranked but seems to have a lot of the things you can't teach. 4.4 forty(he's white) and a very high vertical. Interesting pickup

Is he a 3 Star? The only thing I saw is that he’s not rated by 248.

Splitting hairs, but he ran a laser timed 4.38-4.39 40 on a visit to App State. He's damn fast. It's a tad on the underwhelming side because it feels like UGA is struggling to get some of their top identified targets, but I don't think his ranking reflects his talent. End of day, will be curious to see his Senior film and I think he can do damage from the slot while likely not being a super demanding personality.

I think the expectation is set that he could be a redshirt candidate. But the potential to impact games during the 2023 season should be promising if the hands transition to college.

He will redshirt. Most of our pass catchers are returning next year. The only one we lose is Pickens.

Yeah, I'd be shocked for us to count on him in year 1, but I like his potential in 2023. Particularly if we manage to pull a game changer outside receiver in this class as well. I know that's looking less than ideal right now, but just gotta hope we turn some heads this season with what is expected to be a vastly improved and more modern offense.

I think Kearis could move on too.

This is his 4th season. While he could come back, I think he'll be gone. The expectation there would be that Arian Smith hopefully is able to step up and fill in that slot receiver role as a starter by then.

SoFl and others have been consistent here. We are not able to match A&M's NIL package, but we've at least put together something competitive enough that if he wants to come here it shouldn't prevent it outright. There is growing confidence, but if A&M misses on some of the other guys they are also targeting, then I'd expect his NIL package gets bigger so they don't lose him as well. Assume this goes to the wire.
