2019 Recruiting Class

Well, we’re now in the month of April, and I want to try and update yall in my class prediction, at least once a month depending on how much recruiting traffic there is. So with that said, it’s April 1, and its time for another class prediction!

Georgia ranks as the No. 1 class in the country according to 247 Sports. The Bulldogs have eight commitments currently with the latest coming from SDE Bill Norton on March 18. It’s still fairly early for the 2019 recruiting class, but that isn’t stopping Georgia from recruiting these guys hard. Nolan Smith already pledged his loyalty to the Bulldogs and appears to be the ringleader for the class. He’s pushing for kids all over the state of Georgia and selling the program.

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.
