Huck’s Class of 2020 Recruiting Prediction

If you read my article from earlier this week, Huck’s Official 2019 Season Prediction, you know that I believe we are about to witness a very special season.  On the heels of that special season, I expect Kirby Smart & Co. to capitalize on the recruiting trail.  Below is my Class of 2020 Prediction

QUARTERBACK

Carson Beck – 6’5 226 – 4-Star

The Dawgs are done at the QB position in this class with Carson Beck who will battle it out with Dwan Mathis to determine who is the starting QB in 2020.

RUNNING BACK

Kendall Milton – 6’2 229 – 5-Star

Zachary Evans – 5’11 200 – 5-Star

With Kendall Milton in the fold, the Dawgs pull off a shocker and land Zachary Evans as well.  Evans does not want to take a bunch of hits on the collegiate level and the chance to partner with Milton and play behind an elite offensive line is too good to pass up.  Also, Kirby will be able to sell him on the fact that Georgia is going to continue to be a run-first team while breaking in a first-year starter at QB.

WIDE RECEIVER

Marcus Rosemy – 6’2 195 – 4-Star

Justin Robinson – 6’4 200 – 4-Star

Corey Wren – 5’9 170 – 3-Star

The three commits the Dawgs already have in the fold stay committed and the Dawgs take a big swing at Arian Smith but can’t quite real him in.

TIGHT END

Darnell Washington – 6’8 261 – 5-Star

Arik Gilbert – 6’5 245 – 5-Star

With James Coley at offensive coordinator, the tight end is going to become much more involved in the passing game.  After Charlie Woerner has a massive senior season Gilbert will decide to stay home and Washington will join the fold as well. Georgia will also be able to sell Gilbert on the ability to contribute at WR.

OFFENSIVE TACKLE

Broderick Jones – 6’5 285 – 5-Star

Tate Ratledge – 6’6 322 – 4-Star

The Dawgs are done at offensive tackle with Jones and Ratledge in this class.  Jones is an elite athlete at offensive tackle and Tate Ratledge reminds me a lot of a young Cade Mays.

OFFENSIVE GUARD

Chad Lindberg – 6’7 327 – 4-Star

Joshua Braun – 6’6 335 – 4-Star

Both Lindberg and Braun could play tackle but are perhaps better suited at guard in college.  Two massive human beings who will open massive holes for Georgia’s tailbacks in the future.

CENTER

Sedrick Van Pran – 4-Star

The Dawgs add Van Pran into the fold and Pittman completes another incredible haul of offensive lineman.

DEFENSIVE LINE

Jalen Carter – 6’4 301 – 4-Star

Nazir Stackhouse – 6’3 305 – 4-Star

Warren Brinson – 6’4 299 – 4-Star

Gervon Dexter – 6’7 286 – 4-Star

Zykevious Walker – 6’4 275 – 4-Star

In my opinion, it is only a matter of time until Gervon Dexter flips from the Gators to the Dawgs.  Where there is smoke there is fire and words can’t put the fire out.  Adding Dexter and Walker while Jamil Burroughs decides to look elsewhere and the Dawgs would round a great defensive line class.

OUTSIDE LINEBACKER

Jordan Burch – 6’5 260 – 5-Star

This is the annual shocker that Kirby Smart will pull off for the Class of 2020.  With Clemson already loaded up with defensive lineman and Georgia’s pass rush performing at an elite level during the 2019 season, Burch will join the Dawgs.

INSIDE LINEBACKER

Mekhail Sherman – 6’3 235 – 5-Star 

The Dawgs have a stud in Mekhail Sherman and will go hard after Justin Flowe and Noah Sewell but won’t be able to reel either in.  

CORNERBACK

Jalen Kimber – 6’0 170 – 4-Star

Kelee Ringo – 6’2 205 – 5-Star

Kimber is a freakish athlete and Ringo is an instant impact player on the collegiate level and the Dawgs will be very happy to add those two.

SAFETY

Nadab Joseph – 6’2 190 – 4-Star

It is going to be a Georgia v. Alabama battle for Joseph once again and Kirby will be able to lure him back to Athens after J.R. Reed and Richard LeCounte depart for the NFL.

SPECIAL TEAMS

Jarek Zirkel (Kicker) – 6’3 185 – 3-Star

With Hot Rod exhausting his eligibility the Dawgs bring in another kicker with a big leg that should be ready to contribute as a true freshman.

Matthew “Huck” Pasek was born into a family of Georgia Bulldogs. Huck’s father, Gary, graduated from UGA in 1976 and became a high school chemistry teacher at Peachtree HS in Dunwoody, GA where he coached alongside Georgia High School football legend T. McFerrrin. Gary’s love of football, especially Georgia football, was passed along to his son. Huck lives in Belmont, NC with his wife, Whitney, and works in Financial Services Litigation. In his spare time he is an avid golfer, movie fanatic and habitual traveler to St. Simons Island with his wife “just to get away”. The moniker ImYourHuckleberry arose from his favorite movie, Tombstone, and character Doc Holiday’s famous line, “I’m Your Huckleberry”. Matthew was never one to shy away from a confrontation or debate, thus the nickname instantly stuck.
