Bulldogs Looking to Add Another DT

With the start of spring practice yesterday for the Bulldogs everyone was watching how coach Todd Grantham would do installing his new defense. Grantham has told the media and all his players that he wants an attacking style defense that makes the offense react to what they are doing and not the other way around. One of the main keys to this defense is the "nose position". This is where Grady Jarrett, 3 star recruit, out of Rockdale County HS in Conyers, GA comes into play.

Jarrett is a 6'1" 273 lb pure DT that was in Athens last weekend for Junior Day. During his most current visit to Athens Jarrett left some film for the coaches to watch and when he spoke with coach Garner he was told that they would really like him to come to their summer camp. When Jarrett spoke with UGASports.com about the 3-4 defense that the Bulldogs will be running he had this to say "I feel like I can fit in their style of 3-4, because they are not doing it like Alabama does with a big Terrance Cody type player. I think they want an athletic guy who can split the gaps, and I can definitely do that." You can read the interview in full by clicking on the link.

Jarrett currently does not have any offers but he feels that Georgia and Clemson are close to offering. Some other schools that are showing interest in him are Alabama, Florida, LSU, North Carolina State, Miami (FL) and South Carolina. Jarrett will be visiting Alabama, Clemson and Georgia for spring practice in the upcoming weeks.
