UGA football player card: DL Warren Brinson

Georgia Bulldogs defensive lineman Warren Brinson played high school football at the prestigious IMG Academy

Warren Brinson, defensive lineman (No. 97):

Class: Freshman

Height: 6-4

Weight: 305 pounds

Hometown: Bradenton, Florida

High School: IMG Academy

Georgia Bulldogs defensive lineman Warren Brinson played high school football at the prestigious IMG Academy. Brinson enrolled early at the University of Georgia.

The four-star recruit will be a part of Georgia’s stout front seven. Brinson is a native of Savannah, Georgia and played football at Savannah Christian before coming to IMG Academy.

Last season, Georgia had the top run defense in the nation and allowed only two rushing touchdowns all season. Brinson will help provide depth and potential for the Dawgs. He’ll be an important player in the future.

Brinson will combine with Malik Herring, Devonte Wyatt, Nolan Smith, Travon Walker, Jermaine Johnson, Azeez Ojulari, Jordan Davis and more to form one of the top defensive fronts in the SEC next season. Dan Lanning’s defense should be a treat to watch.

Georgia Bulldogs WR target Agiye Hall makes commitment

The Georgia Bulldogs made the top four of elite wide receiver Agiye Hall, but it wasn’t enough. Hall committed to the Alabama Crimson Tide.

The Georgia Bulldogs made the top four of elite wide receiver Agiye Hall, but it wasn’t enough to secure his commitment. Hall committed to the Alabama Crimson Tide.

Hall is a four-star prospect who plays high school football at IMG Academy. He has good size at 6’3″.

Agiye Hall, who is a member of the class of 2021, committed to Alabama via Twitter:

Hall announced his top four schools: Georgia, Arizona State, LSU, and Alabama via Twitter in March. Hall re-opened his recruitment to all schools, but rolled with the Crimson Tide in the end.

Agiye Hall trains and plays at an elite high school football program in IMG Academy. He is a solid route runner. Look at this route to demonstrate his abilities:

Hall doesn’t tip his route very much and gains lots of separation in this case. He should be a playmaker for Alabama fro years to come. He’s a great commitment for Nick Saban and the always loaded Crimson Tide.

Despite a dead period in recruiting, players are still making commitments. Kirby Smart and Georgia have recently seen a couple of commits of their own. Georgia additionally has several other wide receiver targets in the class of 2021.

Nolan Smith Outside Linebacker (#4):

Class: Sophomore

Height: 6-3

Weight: 235 pounds

Hometown: Savannah, Georgia

High School: IMG Academy

Georgia Bulldogs outside linebacker/defensive end Nolan Smith came to Athens as an elite five-star prospect. He was the nation’s top prospect according to some sites. He played both defensive line and running back in high school (he transferred to IMG Academy for his senior season)

Smith saw a bunch of playing time as a freshman. He played in all 14 games and was around the quarterback a lot (15 pressures), but only converted those pressures into 2.5 sacks. Look for Smith to have a breakout season as a sophomore, even though he made a big impact as a freshman and was arguably UGA’s best pass-rusher.

Smith helped Georgia have the number one scoring defense and the nation’s top run defense in 2019. Kirby Smart, Dan Lanning and the Bulldog defense should be elite once again in 2020.

Hall announced his top four schools: Georgia, Arizona State, LSU, and Alabama via Twitter earlier this month. Now, Hall is re-opening his recruitment to all schools. Will another school sneak into the mix?

Agiye Hall trains at an elite high school football program in IMG Academy. Hall is a good route runner. Look at this route to demonstrate his skill-set:

Hall doesn’t tip his route very much and gains lots of separation in this case. He should be a playmaker in college. He’d be a great commitment for Kirby Smart and Georgia, which is still building the class of 2021. UGA and others will have to wait now.

With the Coronavirus, fans should expect fewer commitments this spring. Recruits aren’t able to visit as many schools and won’t make commitments until they’ve seen their options.

UGA football among four-star RB Lovasea Carroll’s SEC heavy top five

The Georgia Bulldogs are among the top five for 2021 four-star running back Lovasea Carroll, who plays at IMG Academy in Florida.

The Georgia Bulldogs are among the top five for 2021 four-star running back Lovasea Carroll. Carroll plays at the prestigious IMG Academy in Florida. The 6′, 190 pound running back is from Warrentown, Georgia. He’s received numerous offers from top schools across the country.

Will Carroll be the next back at UGA? He announced his latest edition of his top schools today:

Carroll’s top eight of Auburn, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Penn State, Ohio State, Tennessee, and Mississippi State was SEC heavy. He’s now trimmed Mississippi State, Tennessee, Alabama and Penn State from the list. He added the South Carolina Gamecocks to the mix as well.

Perhaps the 2021 RB wants to stay close to home? Regardless, Carroll will play against top competition in his time at IMG Academy.

Georgia’s class of 2021 features a mere two commits at the moment. The Dawgs will look to add numerous commits to both their 2020 and 2021 classes. For now, Kirby Smart and company are focusing more on filling up the remainder of the 2020 class, which is in the top five of classes nationwide. UGA has one RB signed in the class of 2020 in Kendall Milton.
