The Georgia Bulldogs were in the market for Kentucky transfer WR, Dane Key. However, with his commitment to Nebraska announced, Georgia must be all in on USC Transfer Zachariah Branch.
The Georgia Football program isn’t exactly “Transfer Portal U.” They aren’t one of the several SEC programs that seem to rebuild and restructure their football program via the transfer portal ever December. They become rather selective this time of the year.
College football has become a salary-disbursement sport. You have a specific budget to build a team; it’s clear that Georgia prefers to deploy its resources at the high school level, having landed seven consecutive Top-5 recruiting classes under Kirby Smart. They did, however, spend some resources on acquiring starting-caliber players in the gateway. Players that make an immediate difference.
Georgia was very intrigued in Kentucky WR Transfer Dane Key. With Key’s decision to attend Nebraska and play for the Cornhuskers, Georgia has been linked to another WR prospect. USC Transfer Zachariah Branch and his brother, DB Zion Branch, are now Georgia’s major targets.
Not only is Zachariah Branch arguably the most dynamic playmaker in this year’s portal cycle, his brother Zion is a 6’2, 210 pound former 4-star that plays safety, a position of need for Georgia this offseason. Sources have indicated that the connection to Georgia comes from wide receivers coach James Coley who did a tremendous job recruiting Branch at Texas A&M during his time as the Aggies WR Coach. Georgia will likely now go all in on perhaps landing both Branch brothers who just wrapped up a visit with Arizona State.
