Watch: Georgia Bulldogs freshmen arrive on campus

The Georgia Bulldogs elite recruiting class of 2021 arrived on campus and has a message for UGA fans.

The Georgia Bulldogs have secured one of the top recruiting classes in the country in the class of 2021. Now, 16 of Georgia’s members of the touted recruiting class are on campus and are enrolled at the University of Georgia.

Kirby Smart and Georgia only have four players who have signed letters of intent, but aren’t on campus: Dylan Fairchild, Jamon Dumas-Johnson, Jared Wilson, and Kamari Lassiter.

Overall, Georgia has 20 signees in the class of 2021 with no outstanding verbalย  commitments. Georgia is recruiting more players at the moment, but still has the No. 3 ranked recruiting class in the country.

Look for Kirby Smart and Dan Lanning to try to add another defensive back due to the departures of Eric Stokes, Tyrique Stevenson, DJ Daniel, Richard LeCounte, and Tyson Campbell in the secondary.

Here’s how members of the class of 2021 arrived on campus:

Numerous Georgia Bulldogs were very excited to be on campus in Athens and they are looking forward to the next step in their lives.

From the tone of the videos, it does sound like the new recruits are being given a quarantine period before they’ll be able to workout and later practice with the team.

Daniels committed to the Ole Miss Rebels, but backed off his initial decision.

Now, Daniels has committed to Mike Leach and the Mississippi State Bulldogs. Daniels is a talented recruit in the class of 2021 from Lucedale, Mississippi. He plays football at George County High School.

The four-star has excellent length and is 6-foot-3. He put the Georgia Bulldogs, Texas A&M Aggies, Ole Miss Rebels and Mississippi State Bulldogs in his top schools.

Dan Lanning and the Georgia defensive staff should be looking for several defensive backs in the class of 2021. Eric Stokes, Tyson Campbell and D.J. Daniel could all leaving following the 2020 season, so Georgia must find some future replacements in this class.
