Soft sell. UGA losing recruits to out of state teams will always happen. There is just too much talent and too many schools within an easy drive of somewhere in GA. UF and FSU are closer to most of south GA then Athens. Auburn, Clemson, USCe are closer for other parts of the state. The last time UGA "locked down" all the in-state talent and signed all the big in state guys was 1990-1993. They got Garrison Hearst, Andre Hastings, Eric Zeier, Mack Strong, Randall Godfrey, Adam Meadows, Brice Hunter, Robert Edwards, Hines Ward, Frank Harvey, all who played in the NFL (not to mention Will Muschamp and Charles Pledger (Fitz's Uncle), who lettered as a Freshman). The best they did was 10-2.
The only times UGA has won nattys, they have had to have a transformational talent on their roster - Frank Sinkwich and Herschel Walker. So in 125 years of football, UGA is probably the most underachieving program in the country.
