UGA Recruits at the Tampa 7 vs 7

Over the weekend some of the best prospects in Florida were on hand to show what they have to offer to college scouts at the Badger Sport 7 vs 7 Tournament in Tampa, FL. Some of the recruits that were on hand are being recruited heavily by the Bulldogs. Here is what Chad Simmons of Scout.com had to say about the Georgia recruits

Brandon Fulse: Tampa Evaluation: While Fulse is still likely to end up on the defensive or offensive line when he gets to the next level, he showed over the weekend that if a school wants him to play tight end, he could do well there too. He is a very athletic big man with soft hands. He dropped the very first pass thrown to him on Saturday afternoon, but his hands were like glue the rest of the tournament. He always caught the ball well away from his body with his big hands, he really used his body to shield defenders well, and he scored a number of touchdowns. He is not an Orson Charles type at tight end, but he could definitely that position on the next level.

Nick O'Leary: Tampa Evaluation: There is no question that O’Leary is one of the top overall prospects in the country. He is not the big 6-foot-6 tight end, but he is everything else. I have seen him play live in full pads and he is extremely impressive there and he was maybe a bit more impressive in the shorts and t-shirt over the weekend. His body control, his explosiveness, his hands, his route running, his ability to go up and get a ball, and just his play-making ability make him a legit five-star candidate. He is right around 6-foot-3, maybe 6-foot-4, but other than that, there are no knocks on O’Leary. He will play early on the next level no matter where he goes.

Nick Waisome: Tampa Evaluation: There were a number of solid corners at this event, but the one that probably stood out the most when out there on an island matched up against receivers was Waisome. He looks very comfortable at corner and although he had some issues with the bigger receivers, he showed he could run with just about anyone. He was the most sound corner there from his back peddle, to change of direction, to quickness out of breaks, to reading the play. He still needs to get stronger and add some more weight, but his skill set at cornerback is legit.
