2019 UGA Football: Player Spotlight, Running Back Zamir White
D'Andre Swift is absolutely one of the nation's best running backs, and he will certainly get his fair share of work this season for the Bulldogs.
But the coaches, players, and fans alike can't stop talking about Zamir White. The #1 running back in the 2018 class has had a bit of a tough go at things over the past year or so, suffering two ACL tears.
He's back to full strength, so we've been lead to believe, even practicing without a knee brace for most of fall camp.
Zamir is a 6'1 230 pound back that is a "Grown man" as Kirby Smart says. And his teammates are having to take a second thought before trying to tackle Zamir White during practices this offseason.
Kirby isn't the only coach that's been talking about Zamir this offseason, offensive coordinator spoke about White, and you can tell that he's got several tricks up his sleeves to get Zeus loose.
Pair that with the speed of a guy that ran a sub 10.6, 100-meter and who is rumored to have run sub 4.4 in the forty in high school and you've got a player that can perfectly counter D'Andre Swift.
Here's Swift talking about the excitement the team has for Zamir getting back on the field:
