Despite committing to Mississippi State in February, Georgia and several other programs continue to show interest in Salem offensive tackle Sam Watts. "The Georgia offensive line coach [Stacy Searels] came to our spring practice, as well as coaches from Clemson, Duke, UAB and a couple of other schools," Watts said. "I was getting a lot of attention from Georgia Tech before I committed, but then they all of a sudden stopped recruiting me." The 6-foot-4, 290-pound Watts says his heart is pulling him toward the Bulldogs, just not the ones based in Athens.

The article should say that Georgia Tech won't land OT recruit b/c the techies were the ones giving that guy a lot of attention who aren't anymore.

Georgia and Georgia Tech are two different schools. Man this is just a bad post.

Didn't know the Dawgs like to hire women to their coaching staff. Kudos on the equal opportunity in the workplace, Richt!

To set the record straight, Georgia NEVER offered the kid, so whats the big deal? Sam Watts turning down Georgia when they never offered is like me saying I'm not going to date Jessica Simpson...DUH!!!
