Deon Rogers Decommits

Deon  Rogers has decommited from Georgia and officially commited to Louisville today. This is the second recruit that the Bulldogs have lost to Louisville. B.J. Butler also decommited from Georgia and then commited to Louisville. Mark Richt and the Georgia coaching staff did not put up much of fight for Rogers when he switched today. I believe this is because they are pretty sure that they will be getting Telvin Smith to sign a letter of intent on Wednesday. Smith is a ESPN 150 recruit while Rogers was not.

Recruiting Weekend

Mark Richt and his staff have a big recruiting weekend coming up. Three UGA recruits that have soft verbal commitments are going on visits to other schools this weekend.

1. Deon Rogers, 3 Star OLB: visiting Louisville, Rogers goes to HS school qith BJ Butler who decommited from UGA last week and switched his commitment to Louisville. Rogers has expressed a very strong interest in Louisville.
2. Dexter Morant, 3 Star DE: visiting Clemson, Morant has expressed some interest in staying in state now that UGA has changed DC. It would not hurt Richt to try and have a DC in place in the next 48 hours before these recruits take their visits.
3. Nickell Robey, 4 Star DB: visiting South Florida, Robey is another recruit who has been shaken by the changing of the DC at Georgia. A plus in this situation is that Robey is visiting South Florida who does not have a HC as of today.

Georgia also has three recruits that will be on campus tomorrow for visits. Two of these recruits Georgia has commitments from one and one they are trying to get a verbal from.

1.Da'Rick Rogers, 5 Star WR, their have been some rumors circulating that Rogers might switch his commitment however, Rogers has came out and stated that he is 100% commited to Georgia. Georgia needs to make sure that Rogers does not decide to jump ship as he is the top recruits they have this year.
2. Brent Benedict, 4 Star OT, Benedict had a really bad knee injury his senior year but he is recovering quickly.
3. Jordan Akins, 3 Star ATH, Akins was recently offered a scholarship from Georgia and is taking his last visit tomorrow to UGA.

Georgia will probably lose Rogers and Morant but should add Akins to their list of recruits. This will drop UGA a spot or two in the recruiting rankings.
