National Signing Day

National Signing Day

Yesterday was National Signing Day and Georgia signed 23 of the 25 players that had committed. Only one player backed out at the last minute. Dwayne Allen had been having second thoughts since Monday. He called a press conference to say that he would stick with his commitment to Georgia. Obviously his decision changed Wednesday morning when he decided to sign with Clemson.

Rivals has rated Georgia as the number 6 class, ESPN rated Georgia number 5 and, Scout rated Georgia number 4.

Some people think that Georgia will be Preseason # 1. I think that we should be as well. With all the talent we have coming in (A.J. Green & Blair Walsh) and all the players we have coming back (Matthew Stafford, Knowshon Moreno, & Brannan Southerland), not to mention all the players who redshirted in 2007 (Logan Gray, Israel Troupe, & Caleb King) I think we have a great chance of being ranked number 1 at the beginning of next season. Georgia only loses about 6 starters, so we have a huge advantage over schools who lose more than that.

I personally can't wait until next years season. I think that 2008 or 2009 (maybe even both) will be the year we win a National Championship. Maybe Moreno or Stafford can win the Heisman along with it!
