Official Visits Galore for Georgia
Visits of any kind have been on hold since the spring of 2020 due to the NCAA dead period instituted with the pandemic raging.
But this June — as the dead period moves into a "quiet period"— on campuses all across the country, prospects will be taking trips for the first time in almost a year and a half.
Georgia will have a busy month, scheduling official visits for some of the nation's top prospects.
Confirmed
- TE Oscar Delp (June 4-6)
- WR Kojo Antwi (June 4-6)
- OL Addison Nichols (June 4-6)
- OL Tyler Booker (June 18-20)
Those are just some of the names that have publicly confirmed. In a recent interview with Dawgs Daily on SI.com, Addison Nichols mentioned additional names like current quarterback commit Gunner Stockton and wide receiver De'Nylon Morrissette. Nichols mentioned the staff wanting to do an all-Georgia themed visit the first weekend of June.
Dawgs Daily can confirm that Morrissette is expected to announce he will be in town June 4-6. Current UGA commit Marquis Groves-Killebrew prefers to take his official visit during the season, but can get to Athens for an unofficial visit at any time. We also expect him in attendance at some point that weekend. Current commit Tyree West is also likely to be in town.
DL Commit, Tyree West
The major recruiting weekend like the one that's brewing on June 4 is typical in the closing stretch of the recruiting cycle and nearing the early national signing day. Head coach Kirby Smart and the Georgia staff have decided 15 months were long enough to wait, so they are bringing the top targets to Athens as soon as possible.
Considering the circumstances, this could be the biggest recruiting period of the last decade in college football.
Power-5 prospects all across the country have been without the dopamine rush of parading through the $100 million facilities and cathedrals dressed as stadiums in nearly a year in a half. Then suddenly, the dam breaks, and these young men are flooding campuses all across the country.
And it's not just Georgia either. USC is stacking the officials up, as are Ohio State, LSU, Texas A&M and Penn State to name a few. They all are doing it.
There are prospects like wide receiver Kojo Antwi that will be in Athens June 4-6, then Texas A&M June 11-14 followed by USC and Ohio State the following weekends prior to his decision date on July 5.
Buckle up because June is going to be a wild ride.
