Georgia held its first scrimmage of the fall this past weekend in preparation for the 2022 football season.
The Bulldogs lost 15 players to the NFL draft and additional players to the transfer portal, so the question becomes: How does Kirby Smart replace those key guys? Georgia was inactive in the transfer portal this offseason, but thanks to a run of elite recruiting classes, talent is not the issue in Athens.
But depth and inexperience might be, Smart said following the scrimmage.
“If you count, 40 to 35% of our team are freshmen,” Smart said.
Smart provided details on a few players who missed the scrimmage due to injury plus a few who played through some lingering issues.
