I'm sure that will change moving forward with National Championship team pedigrees of these players coming out. Georgia is a destination school for top recruits now, not just the punching bag of Bama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why they mentioned specifically from the Kirby Smart era, where they've been title contenders pretty much every year since. It is something to think about though, weird thing for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pro Bowl and it's selection process is also a joke, I wouldn't put much stock if any into it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the Pro Bowl? Yeah, of course it is a joke which is all the more reason that it is odd only one player has made it when in today's format it is much easier to do so with all the opt outs and being one week before the SB.

It’s odd, but when you actually look at those rosters it’s not all that surprising. Most of the real talent came in the second wave, and most of those guys were taken last year or this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's news to me. 👌 Edited April 14, 2023 by Nabbs4u 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not over complicating anything. Roquan was part of the early Kirby Smart at Georgia Era. When the vast majority of top recruits were going to Clemson, Bama and LSU. These players coming off National Championships (plural) should be the start of a constant flow of top HS recruits moving forward choosing to attend Georgia. So, that singular PB appearance will undoubtedly change in the future. That's all. Edited April 14, 2023 by Nabbs4u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far only Roquan is the only player from the Kirby Smart era (2016 - now) is the only pro bowler. It is odd but it will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azeez probably would’ve had a shot if he didn’t get hurt up in NY. As a late call up at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
