Well, we got another one!!

Know this thread is about football, but three cheers for Tom Watson and the \"old farts\".

Right on, Buc!

Should have won it on the last hole Buc. His \"achilles heal\" showed up on that putt to win on the last hole. He was so deflated and his adrenalin dropped so much, he was DONE in the 4 hole playoff. Once that adrenalin dropped, it showed how tired he was....had NO legs.

Really hate he didn't win.....total CLASS act......amazing thing he did.

Nice insider info. watson...this is a HUGE pick-up for the Dawgs.

Speaking of waton, I too was pulling hard for OLD Tom Watson; couldn't quite make the puts on the back 9 today but what an inspiring 4-day performance!

Anyways, back to football, here's the official news from Online-Athens:

Smith makes Georgia commitment official

Georgia will lose plenty of talent in the interior of its defensive line when seniors Geno Atkins, Jeff Owens and Kade Weston depart after this season.

That’s why landing a commitment from Douglass defensive tackle Garrison Smith might be among the more important additions for the 2010 class.

The nation’s No. 2-rated defensive tackle by Scout.com and Rivals.com announced Sunday night that the Bulldogs are his choice.

First, he tweaked some of Georgia’s biggest rivals by shedding a Georgia Tech shirt and then a Florida shirt before showing a red Georgia one underneath.

“I love my home and I don’t want to go nowhere else. Go Dogs!” Smith said in video streamed on the Internet on Dawgpost.com. “Georgia is just a great program. Got a lot of great coaches, great players, great tradition and great Georgia fans. There’s too much love in Georgia to leave.”

Smith’s brother, Greg, played for Georgia Tech.

The 6-foot-3 1D2, 260-pound Smith totaled approximately 100 tackles last season, according to his high school coach.

“He plays from sideline to sideline,” Douglass coach Kenneth Barrow said. “He’s a super kid character-wise, a good student-athlete.”

Smith becomes the 16th player to have publicly made a non-binding verbal commitment to join Georgia’s 2010 signing class.

Recruiting coordinator Rodney Garner has said the Bulldogs could sign 20 or 21 in the class.

I love the ripping of the Yech and Flori-duh jerseys & the big GO DAWGS can't wait to see the highlights of the announcement.

Gotta give some props to ALL of the Dawg coaches for their recruiting efforts. Yall realize we went from a distant 20 something ranking to a consensus top 5 class in less than 6 weeks! Keep reeling em' in UGA coaches!

Just wish UM had been there and somebody filmed his face during the announcement!!

We have followed big Garrison with 4 star Florida CB Nickell Robey and 4 star DE TJ Stripling. Stripling is the fifth DE we have committed this year. Shows CMR is addressing the problem! Great class so far this year!
