UGA football in top 5 for Denzel Moore

The Georgia Bulldogs are among the top five schools for class of 2023 recruit Denzel Moore.

The Georgia Bulldogs are among the top five schools for class of 2023 recruit Denzel Moore.

Moore is an unranked linebacker prospect, who plays high school football for Central Gwinnett in Suwanee, Georgia. The 6-foot-2, 225-pound edge rusher is an in-state recruit to keep an eye on.

Kirby Smart, linebackers coach Glenn Schumann, and defensive coordinator Dan Lanning are among the top coaches in the country and recruiting top linebacker talent. Will Moore be the next talented linebacker to commit to the Georgia football program?

Moore previously committed to the Indiana Hoosiers football program in March, but he backed off his decision several months later. Interestingly, the Central Gwinnett star did not include Indiana in his top five.

Denzel Moore named his top five schools via his Twitter account:

The unrated edge rusher puts Georgia, Buffalo, Georgia Tech, Coastal Carolina, and Kentucky in his top schools.

Moore took a visit to the University of Georgia in June. Moore liked what he saw in Athens.

Indiana hires Georgia DB coach as defensive coordinator

The Indiana Hoosiers have hired former Georgia Bulldogs defensive backs coach Charlton Warren to be their defensive coordinator.

The Indiana Hoosiers have hired former Georgia Bulldogs defensive backs coach Charlton Warren to be their defensive coordinator. Indiana is coming off an impressive 6-2 season where they challenged Ohio State, defeated Penn State, but lost in their bowl game to Ole Miss.

Indiana is an excellent job for Warren, an Atlanta native. The Hoosiers secondary and defense was very impressive in 2020 under former defensive coordinator Kane Wommack and head coach Tom Allen. Wommack left for the head coaching job at South Alabama.

Charlton Warren deserves a chance to run a defense after previously being a defensive backs coach at Nebraska, UNC, Tennessee, and Florida.

Now, Kirby Smart and Georgia must look for a replacement for Warren. The Bulldogs have a lot of talent in the secondary, but they lack in returning experience at the cornerback position.

In fact, Georgia’s new defensive backs coach must replace the top four corners and top safety from last season. The University of Georgia is losing Tyson Campbell, Eric Stokes, Richard LeCounte, and DJ Daniel to the 2021 NFL Draft. Additionally, Tyrique Stevenson is transferring to Miami and is no longer with the program.

Who will Georgia hire to replace Charlton Warren? The position should be a sought after role and Kirby Smart has a background as a former defensive back at Georgia, so he knows the position well and should hire the right guy.
