Georgia football: A 2020 recruiting summary so far

Georgia football has jumped to the #3 spot on the 2020 national football recruiting rankings. They trail only Clemson and Alabama.

The Georgia Bulldogs have already had a very successful offseason recruiting wise.

The Dawgs now have three 5-star commits signed and still have more to go after.

5-star athlete/tight end Darnell Washington has signed with Georgia already and is ranked as the #1 2020 athlete and #6 overall prospect, on ESPN’s top 300.  The 6 foot 7.5 inch TE will bring a whole new dimension to the Bulldog receiving corps and will provide amazing protection to whoever is in the driving seat under center for Georgia’s offense next season.

5-star outside linebacker Mekhail Sherman has also signed with the Dawgs and is ranked as the #1 OLB recruit in the 2020 class.  Sherman is 6’3″ 234 lbs and his highlight tapes are scary good.  Sherman will help beef up an already strong UGA LB group and was a huge signing for Georgia.

The last 5-star so far for the 2020 class is offensive tackle Broderick Jones.  Jones is a 6’5″ 275 lb offensive lineman out of Lithonia, Georgia that could likely battle for a starting spot on next years team.  With Andrew Thomas and Isaiah Wilson projected to go very early in the 2020 NFL Draft, there will be a massive hole to fill on the Dawgs O-Line, and Jones could be the man to fill that void.  Jones is ranked as the #2 OT in the 2020 class.

4-star RB signee Kendall Milton is the #6 ranked RB in the 2020 class and will play a major role in helping Georgia’s run game when D’Andre Swift departs for the NFL, currently favored to be the 1st running back selected in the 2020 Draft.

4-star OT Tate Ratledge will aid Broderick Jones in making up for some big offensive line losses this offseason.

4-star QB Carson Beck will be on the hunt for the starting job if Fromm decides to forgo his senior year and head to the NFL.  He will likely have to beat out Stetson Bennett and D’Wan Mathis (if healthy).

4-star safety Major Burns, who flipped from LSU late in his commitment will hope to step in and replace J.R. Reed, who will also be entering to the NFL Draft.

The Dawgs currently sit at #3 on the national 2020 recruiting list with three 5-stars, fourteen 4-stars, and three 3-stars all signed.

4-star safety commits to Georgia

Kirby Smart and Georgia football lock down 2020 DB commit, flipped from LSU.

The Georgia Bulldogs have just locked down the #11 safety of the class of 2020, Major Burns.

Burns is a 6’2″, 176 lb wide-framed DB out of Baton Rouge, Louisiana.  The highly sought after safety de-committed from his hometown LSU Tigers this week and visited with Kirby Smart and staff just days after.

Burns announced over twitter on Tuesday that he has officially committed to the G.

This is a huge addition for Kirby as he will look to replace the likes of J.R. Reed and Richard LeCounte in the Bulldog’s secondary.

Burns had notable offers from LSU, Florida, Oklahoma and Texas A&M, but dropped them all for the Dawgs.  This is one of the many bombshells that will be dropped within the next two days and is a huge win for the Dawgs.

Georgia football offers 2020 Memphis commit

Georgia football has offered Memphis commit, 3-star inside linebacker Kobe Wilson. Wilson is the 43rd ranked ILB in the 2020 class.

Kirby Smart has just recently offered 2020 Memphis commit, inside linebacker Kobe Wilson.

Wilson, the 6 foot, 210 lb 3-star linebacker is a Georgia native who currently attends Parkview high school.

Wilson gave a verbal commitment to the University of Memphis back in July but it seems this offer has opened his recruitment back up.

He is currently ranked as the #43 inside linebacker in the country and the 87th best player in the country for his class, according to 247Sports.

Wilson would be a great steal for Kirby and the Dawgs as recruiting madness is in full swing.
