Vandagriff will have a lot of interest
Will be a lot of interest in Brock Vandagriff. Wanted his degree from UGA and he is about to get it. Great one here on and off the field , that phone line will be hot, but I don't think it will be too long on his next school..

Beck coming back?
With Brock Vandagriff going into the portal, you have to think Carson Beck is coming back. NFL scouts are high on Beck and the NFL needs QBs. He could go and do well. So if the Dawgs manage to keep him another year, that would be gigantic news for Georgia. pic.twitter.com/a0a02qmuas
