Georgia football player card: LB Chaz Chambliss

Will Georgia Bulldogs freshman linebacker Chaz Chambliss be able to crack Dan Lanning’s linebacker rotation this season?

Chaz Chambliss, Linebacker (No. 32):

Class: Freshman

Height: 6-2

Weight: 250 pounds

Hometown:Carrollton, Georgia

High School:  Carrollton High School

Will Georgia Bulldogs freshman linebacker Chaz Chambliss be able to crack Dan Lanning’s linebacker rotation this season? Chambliss enrolled early at Georgia, so he should have a head start on some of the other freshmen. Additionally, the 6-foot-2, 250-pound linebacker has the size to play immediately.

Chambliss comes to Athens after being rated as a four-star linebacker. The Carrollton star finished rated as the No. 360 recruit in the class of 2021 and the No. 40 linebacker.

During his recruiting process, Chambliss had his mind set on UGA. He never released a list of top schools. However, he did receive dozens of scholarship offers, including elite programs like Alabama, Florida, Clemson, and Ohio State.

The Georgia defense does not have as much depth at outside linebacker following the departures of Azeez Ojulari and Jermaine Johnson. Georgia still has elite talents like Adam Anderson and Nolan Smith, but the Dawgs likely won’t have as large of a rotation as last season.

The four-star linebacker is a part of Georgia’s incoming class of 2021, which featured four highly-ranked linebackers: Xavian Sorey Jr., Smael Mondon, Jamon Dumas-Johnson, and Chaz Chambliss.

Georgia commit Chaz Chambliss recruiting nation’s No. 1 CB to UGA

Georgia football OLB commit Chaz Chambliss recruits the nation’s No.1 CB in the 2021 class to UGA.

Georgia’s 4-star outside linebacker commit Chaz Chambliss has joined the 2021 commits in their recruiting efforts to secure the top players in the nation.

On Sunday, Chambliss, who is ranked as the No. 18 outside linebacker in the 2021 class, Tweeted at the No. 1 cornerback in the 2021 class, Tony Grimes.

 

Grimes is a 5-star from Virginia Beach, VA, standing at 6-feet and 180 pounds.  He is America’s No. 7 overall player and is the top player in the state of Virginia.  Earlier Sunday, he released his top 4 schools, including Georgia, Ohio State, North Carolina and Texas A&M.

Grimes’ 247Sports Crystal Ball Predictions are pretty split right now, experts leaning more heavily towards UNC and UGA.

Georgia currently has 9 hard commits for the 2021 class, giving them the 13th best class in the country as of now, as well as the 4th best class in the SEC.  Landing Grimes would be a huge addition to the Dawgs’ ever-growing list of studs committing to the G.
