It's also 4 out of 10 commits that are from GA, which is notable by itself. I looked back at previous years in Rivals, and we got 7 a year ago w/ Dooley and 7 the year before w/ Kiffin. The previous 9 years under Fulmer we never signed more than 4 out of GA. This could be interpreted a number of ways-- Fulmer wasn't getting it done in GA after Richt showed up, or Richt's starting to lose his grip on the GA talent, or perhaps both. Either way, history tells us that Georgians can make awfully good Vols.
The simple reason is that this staff has a lot of ties to GA and FL. We got a lot of guys from Fl last year as well, and looks like we will again this year. GA, FL, TN, and looks like Sirmon is pitching a tent in Ohio and VA as well.
