The University of Georgia football program reversed a trend in the class of 2021. In the previous years, the commitments and eventual signees in classes under Kirby Smart had been geared much more toward players outside the state lines of the Peach State. In fact, in 2019 and 2020, UGA signed 35 players of their 49 signees overall from outside of their home state. So for 2 recruiting cycles, only 28.6% of the signees were from Georgia. In 2021, the Dawgs brought in 12 players out of the 20 they signed that were originally from the state of Georgia (60%).
