Georgia football adds another commitment in OL Griffin Scroggs

Georgia football adds former Georgia Tech commitment in Grayson offensive guard Griffin Scroggs

The Georgia Bulldogs have added a commitment from class of 2022 offensive lineman Griffin Scroggs. Scroggs, who plays guard for Grayson High School, is rated as a three-star prospect.

Grayson High School was dominant against the highest level of competition in Georgia last season. The Loganville, Georgia, high school football powerhouse won the 2020 state championship.

Scroggs stands at 6-foot-4 and weighs in at 315 pounds. He was previously committed to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, but announced his decision to decommit on Aug. 2.

The next day, Scroggs announced his commitment to the University of Georgia. Not a bad timeline for Georgia football.

Scroggs had previously committed to Georgia Tech in June.

The three-star offensive line recruit holds numerous scholarship offers, but it appears that his prized offer comes from the home-state Georgia Bulldogs. Georgia offered Scroggs on June 9.

The Grayson High product was recently visiting Athens and spending time with Georgia offensive line coach Matt Luke on June 10. Scroggs took another visit to Georgia on July 31 and this visit cemented his decision to change his mind.

Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs now have 14 commitments in the class of 2022. Scroggs is Georgia’s first offensive lineman to commit in the class. UGA now has the nation’s No. 6 ranked recruiting class.

Don’t worry Georgia Tech fans, you have the No. 36 rated class of 2022, which honestly isn’t too bad for the Yellow Jackets.

Four-star WR Bralon Brown puts Georgia, Georgia Tech in top five

Will Georgia and Georgia Tech be in more recruiting battles over the upcoming seasons? Four-star WR Bralon Brown names his top five.

Will the Georgia Bulldogs and Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets be in more recruiting battles over the upcoming seasons? Georgia Tech’s second year coach Geoff Collins is a better recruiter than previous coach Paul Johnson, who ran the triple option offense.With all the in-state talent in the Peach State, isn’t it inevitable for the two teams to clash more over the next decade?

The Bulldogs and Yellow Jackets are set up to fight over 2021 four-star wide receiver Bralon Brown. Brown is a 6-2 target, who plays high school football at Chaminade-Madonna Prep in Hollywood, Florida.

Brown put both schools in his top five, which he announced via his Twitter account:

Brown lists Georgia, Georgia Tech, Ole Miss, Miami, and Penn State in his top schools. He announced his top five despite the present dead period in recruiting.

Brown would be a great addition to Georgia’s class of 2021. Kirby Smart and his staff are working to secure another elite recruiting class, but UGA currently has only three commitments.

Georgia is continuing to recruit the Sunshine State harder than ever. It’ll be interesting to see if Georgia Tech can begin to hamper UGA’s recruiting more, or if the Dawgs will continue to dominate.
