What a difference a couple of months can make. Heading into May, the Bulldogs were sitting at just a couple of commitments for the 2018 class and it seemed like Kirby Smart’s red and black recruiting mean machine was stuck in neutral on the tracks. Since then, Georgia has quadrupled that total and also landed the nation’s number 1 running back for 2018.
Yes. That red and black mean machine is steaming full speed ahead again, but what will the rest of July and summer hold for the Dogs on the recruiting trail? Will Georgia land Matt Corral or Justin Fields? Who will be the next 2018 prospect to commit to the “G”? All this and a whole lot more on tonight’s Bulldawg Illustrated live UGA football recruiting chat.
