2022 QB Battle Just Got More Interesting
It's a commodity in college football to enter a football season with a known asset at the quarterback position. It's something that's not a given even in today's climate of college football where the quarterback play is at an all-time high.
Georgia has that in JT Daniels entering the 2021 season. Barring some type of injury, No. 18 will be lining up and taking snaps for the Bulldogs this fall. And expectations are extremely high for Daniels and this offense.
However, most expect Daniels to depart for the 2022 NFL Draft following this season, with projections as high as the No. 1 overall selection. So, that leaves Georgia with a major question in 2022: Who will be the starting quarterback?
The battle for the starting position kicks off in spring practice and it begins with 2020 signee Carson Beck and 2021 signee Brock Vandagriff. However, that impending battle for the starting spot just got a lot more interesting.
Gunner Stockton's father Rob Stockton was on ESPN Coastal on Wednesday and said the 2022 signee will be an early enrollee in January, 2022 so he will be in the mix during spring practice.
"But, he is a he's a great kid. He's got character, he does things the right way. He knows how to work. He knows how to lead and I'm just excited about him. He's concentrating on one thing and one thing only and that is trying to win a high-school state championship and he knows how to keep his mind focused where his feet are planted. And he will be an early enrollee at the University of Georgia. And there'll be time for that and we're excited for that. But right now, we're 100% focused on doing everything we can to win a state championship, which would be the first one in our high school's history." - Rob Stockton
