SL’s 2019 Class Prediction: *as of 8/2/2018*

After an impressive month of July, it’s time again for SL’s Class Prediction! Since the last class prediction, Georgia added six new commits to the board with 5-star DT Travon Walker, 5-star RB John Emery Jr., 4-star OLB Rian Davis, 4-star ATH/WR Makiya Tongue, 4-star OT Warren McClendon, and 3-star SDE Zion Logue. Despite pulling in such an impressive July, I believe there are more “silent” commits out there for the Bulldogs. This caliber of athletes that Georiga’s going after doesn’t make decisions this early. The prospects take their time and think about where they’ll spend the next three-four years.
Georgia ranks as the No. 2 overall class and the No. 2 SEC class right now sitting behind Alabama who has four more commitments than the Bulldogs. However, I expect that to change the closer we get to signing day. The Bulldogs have an average-per-commitment of 94.60 and 281.32 points. With just one more commitment, Georgia would take over Alabama’s spot at No.1. Things, for the most part, are the same, however, there are some areas where players grew in confidence or new names emerged completely. Georgia currently has 16 commitments. The Bulldogs have five 5-stars, ten 4-stars, and one 3-star. All of them, in my opinion, are 100 percent committed to the Bulldogs. Nolan Smith leads the way and every guy I speak to mentions his name.
Below I break down each position and who the Bulldogs might pick up and a few other guys on the radar. I rank 1-3 scale of confidence that the prospect will sign with Georgia.
