The 6-3, 205-pound linebacker is the third linebacker commitment for the class. According to Scout.com, Gilliard is a three-star prospect. Rivals.com considers Gilliard a four-star prospect. Gilliard chose Georgia over Georgia Tech and Florida.

EXCELLENT CHOICE in the SEC and a good choice regrdless of conference

Wow. Georgia should be pretty hard to beat for a while. A very good team that seems to be getting better by the day.

May 11, 2008  12:26 PM ET

GA is going to be one of those teams no one wants to face...no matter what conference...they seem like they are going to be a scary team going into september...

Georgia will always be good; however, they always seem to come up a tad short. And this is probably due to the fact that they are cursed to have to compete in the impossibly competitive SEC.

I have always liked Georgia as a team, their coach, and they always seem to be a consistent team especially on D. I cant wait for ncaa 2009 to come out so i can begin a legacy with them!

Makes sense. He is from Georgia and Richt is a solid recruiter.

UGA count: 1

May 11, 2008  11:50 PM ET

Oh, whatever will we do...?

The guys that write "some" of these stories probably could not get admitted to Georgia Tech; don't let it bother you.

This is a good commitment for Georgia. The dawgs need all the help they can get with the great balance that the SEC has. Florida has been recruiting very well and the gamecocks continue show signs of vast potential. Any team, including UGA, that wants to compete for an SEC championship must be a strong competitor in the recruiting race, and that starts with nabbing the in-state talent.

May 12, 2008  05:04 PM ET

i think georgia'll be good but they wont win it all

May 12, 2008  06:38 PM ET

UGA and AU in SEC championship. AU pulls of UPSET. AS much as i hate it. ROLL TIDE

May 12, 2008  06:50 PM ET

interesting, but who wins the south's oldest rivalry in the regular season?

May 12, 2008  07:31 PM ET

Smart kid. UGA is going to be solid this year, just as they have been the last few. They seem to step it up when they need to, but need to step up when the team isn't as tough. GO DAWGS!!!

May 12, 2008  08:56 PM ET

LSU and UGA are gonna fight for the number one spot in recruiting this season

May 12, 2008  09:15 PM ET

in response to who will win the souths oldest rivalry, in the regular season. i think that georgia will win that game.

G8R Freak, what you will do is lose to UGA this year
