With the loss of Matthew Stafford, Knowshon Moreno and Asher Allen to the NFL draft, as well as players ending their tenure with UGA and moving forward after graduation, whether it be to the NFL or otherwise—including Benjamin Boyd, Ramarcus Brown, CJ Byrd, Dannell Ellerbe, Demiko Goodman, Kenneth Harris, Corvey Irvin, Wes Jacobs, Mohamed Massaquoi, Brian Mimbs and Brannan Southerland—recruiting efforts are at the forefront of discussion in the Bulldog Nation these days.
