Like most everything these days, recruiting looks different for Georgia football during the COVID-19 pandemic. The NCAA put a moratorium on on-campus recruitment and in-home coaching visits back in March, and it will stay in place until January of 2021. This is a major hurdle for the potent recruiting machine that the Georgia football program has built underneath Kirby Smart. Smart has led Georgia to having the top ranked recruiting class in the country either two of the last three years, or three years consecutively, depending on which recruiting rankings are used as the final authority.
Georgia’s staff rolls out the red carpet for prospects that come on visits and having spoken to north of 100 recruits and their families over the last couple of years, nobody makes them feel more at home than the Dawg coaching and support staff.
