ESPN’s offseason coverage of College Football continues on, and recently, the Worldwide Leader in Sports was looking at the country’s top newcomers. Georgia, which brought in the nation’s No. 1 recruiting class in 2024, is near the top of the list, and while the Bulldogs don’t rank as the team expected to rely on its first-year players the most, that’s not a bad thing. It just means Kirby Smart and company have a veteran squad this season. Still, there are a few newcomers ESPN expects to make an impact. Transfers Trevor Etienne (Florida), Colbie Young (Miami) and Ben Yurosek (Stanford) are bei...

Georgia reached into the transfer portal once again on Thursday and grabbed a defensive back. Collin Gill, who spent the 2023 season at Oregon, is now a Bulldog and he’s expected to help out at safety. The Washington D.C. native did not play during his first season of college ball, taking a redshirt and giving him four years to play four. DawgsHQ has confirmed that Gill will be on scholarship at Georgia. It appears as if he got the final open scholarship for the Bulldogs and a quick look at his senior highlights at St. John’s School shows that what both Oregon and UGA see in the former three-s...

Georgia has been more active in the transfer portal than ever in 2024 and it added another player on Thursday. Oregon transfer defensive back Collin Gill announced he will continue his football career with the Bulldogs, giving UGA nine transfers for the 2024 season. Gill signed with the Ducks in the 2023 class. He did not play in his first season due to injury and has four years to play four at Georgia. Gill played high school ball at St. Johns in Washington D.C. where he was rated as a three-star prospect in the 2023 cycle. DawgsHQ has confirmed that Gill will be on scholarship at Georgia. Th...

Kirby Smart knows a thing or two about the College Football Playoff. As the defensive coordinator at Alabama, the Crimson Tide were part of it in both 2014 and 2015. Then, when Smart came to Georgia, the Bulldogs were in it by his second season. Smart and Georgia have made two more appearances in the Playoff – winning national championships both of those times. UGA has been in contention just about every year Smart has been in Athens, and with the expansion from four to 12 teams, you can bet the Bulldogs will remain in the mix for years to come. At SEC Spring Meetings, Smart answered questions...

Georgia’s got a special quarterback at the helm this season, and Kirby Smart knows it. Heisman Trophy favorite Carson Beck returns for his second year as the UGA starter after taking over for a two-time national championship winner in 2023. Beck, a former four-star who had waited his turn, took advantage of the long-anticipated opportunity to the tune of 3,941 yards, 24 touchdowns and a school-record 72.4% completion rate. He finished third nationally in passing yards and is the country’s top returning quarterback in that category. Needless to say, the Bulldog quarterback has high hopes for 20...

If you want to better understand why Georgia is widely considered as the No. 1 team in the country going into the 2024 season, look no further than its situation at the game’s most important position, quarterback. ESPN’s David Hale recently broke down the signal caller situations for every team in College Football and the Bulldogs, with Carson Beck behind center, are one of four teams in tier one, joined by Alabama, Texas, and Oregon. While Hale has four teams in his first group, he still has questions. He names the first tier, “cream of a questionable crop.” “Beck might be next year’s No. 1 o...

ESPN released its first FPI for the 2024 college football season and with it comes tons of data on teams across the country. Georgia received the highest rating and has the country’s best percentage chances both to make the College Football Playoff and win the National Championship. Coming in with a rating of 26.8, the Bulldogs outpace the Oregon Ducks (24.5) and Texas Longhorns (22.9) – each of whom are headed to new conferences this fall. Ohio State (22.2) and Alabama (21.9) round out the top five and are the only other teams with a rating above 20.0. Georgia will have to play both Texas and...

The 2024 ballot for the College Football Hall of Fame was released on Monday, and a pair of former Georgia stars are on it. Running back Garrison Hearst and defensive lineman Richard Seymour look to join the 21 Bulldogs in the Atlanta shrine to the sport we all love with an announcement for the Class of 2025 expected to come in January. Hearst played at Georgia and help carry on the tradition of ‘RBU’ from 1990 to 1992, leading the nation in touchdowns during his junior season. That year he rushed for over 1,000 yards in the regular season and capped things off with a fantastic performance in ...

Roster caps and walk-ons were the biggest topic of discussion this past week at SEC Spring Meetings, and Kirby Smart reportedly was one of the biggest advocates for keeping things the way they’ve been. While the foundation of college athletics is fundamentally changing with the recent news of the settlement in House v. NCAA, Smart and several other head coaches hope that rosters can remain in a place where walk-ons are able to be a part of them. “I think there’s a lot of speculation and a lot of narratives out there that are loose and that may not be true. We’re here to figure that out,” Smart...

The run on watch lists is still a ways away with the majority coming out in August, but the first of them was released this week. The Lott IMPACT Trophy is presented annually to a player on the defensive side of the ball who best exemplifies the characteristics of IMPACT (Integrity, Maturity, Performance, Academics, Community and Tenacity). Previous winners have included the likes of Josh Allen (Kentucky – 2018), Aidan Hutchinson (Michigan – 2021) and Will Anderson (Alabama – 2022). The first winner came from Georgia back in 2004 when David Pollack took home the award, and this year, a pair of...
