How is a team in UGA, who is in the Top 3 in Recruiting
Sep 3, 2020, 8:29 AM

every year for the last decade it seems, having its QB battle come down to a Wake Forest Graduate Transfer, and a USC transfer who isn't even medically cleared yet for contact?

The graduate transfer from Wake...

apparently won't be an option for them.
He has opted out of the upcoming season to focus on the NFL draft.
I don't feel the least bit of sympathy for the leghumpers, but you recruit a kid, offer him a scholarship, he comes-in, wins the starting job, takes most if not all of the snaps with the first team, and two weeks prior to kickoff he decides to opt out of the entire season to focus on the NFL draft. Are you kidding me !?!?!?!
If I'm Kirby Smart, I am livid right now.

For him to leave at this point in the season indicates, to me, he may have a problem with , either the QB coach or with Smart. The whole thing sounds mighty strange, IMO.

Something definitely smells fishy in Athens...

As of yesterday, the SoCal transfer Daniels had still not been fully cleared for contact. He's still rehabbing an ACL injury he sustained at So Cal last year. What do you want to be that he's miraculously cleared to play now?
If Daniels can't play, UGa's next option is junior quarterback Stetson Bennett who is a former walk-on and has some limited PT as Fromm's back-up.
They also have two freshmen scholarship QB's on the roster (D'Wan Mathis and Carson Beck). Both were Elite 11 finalists, but both were still playing in high school this time last season.

The rumor going around Athens is he couldn't run the fake punt. So, Kirby cut him loose.

No sympathy here for Kirby Smart. He recruited Newman as a transfer from WF. Coaches who try to patch cracks with transfers deserve what they get if they walk away.

That is the nature of the transfer market. Justin Fields could have been the "next guy you" if he wanted to wait.
They also have a 3* senior and two 4* freshman QBs on the roster. I guess since they were playing the transfer market so much, none of those guys were the solution.
Clemson may have the same issue next year

Dabo isn't Kirby Smart and Uiagalelei isn't going anywhere. I agree with whomever said the timing of this looks fishy. Smart has been the beneficiary of a university that recruits itself. He let the best QBs in the state get away in Watson, Lawrence, and Fields. And now a talented transfer on the cusp of his first start at a major program decides to quit right as the season is starting. Smart has cracks in his armor that get bigger all the time. Just like Muschump he'll get a mulligan on this season because of the covid nonsense, but the UGA people have got to be looking at him sideways, at this point.
