He Won’t be Part of the Team anymore after The Bulldogs Found his Replacement.
The Georgia Bulldogs have a solid incoming transfer class of 10 players. Head coach Kirby Smart and Georgia does not rely on the transfer portal as much as other college football programs. Still, 10 players is a significant transfer class and the most players Georgia has brought in via the portal during any offseason of the Kirby Smart era.
The Bulldogs did see 24 players transfer away from Athens since the SEC championship. The Dawgs lost a significant amount of talent via the portal, but will still have one of the most talented rosters in the country this fall.
Georgia has the nation’s No. 17 incoming transfer class according to 247Sports. Georgia has the eighth-best transfer class in the SEC. However, the Dawgs signed the No. 1 recruiting class in the 2024 cycle in the country. This Georgia team will have no shortage of talent. Let’s look at all 10 incoming Georgia football transfers.
Duke transfer Charlie Ham is expected to handle kickoff duties for Georgia this fall. Ham also served as Duke’s starting kicker from 2020-2022. He made 36 of 50 field goals with a long of 50 yards.
Long snapper Beau Gardner joins Georgia football as a walk-on. Gardner is expected to compete for the starting long snapper role for UGA. Gardner has experience as a starter from his time at UCLA.
Wide receiver Michael Jackson III had 17 receptions for 143 receiving yards and a touchdown for the USC Trojans last season. The 6-foot, 200-pound wide receiver has battled injuries throughout his career, but has a great deal of talent.
Jackson is very effective in the screen game and is touch to tackle after the catch. Jackson is physical at the catch point and should see snaps in the Georgia offense.
Miami transfer Colbie Young is a physical wide receiver that will be a red zone threat for Georgia. Young hauled in several touchdowns this spring and is arguably the Dawgs’ best jump ball target
