On the most recent episode of Before the Hedges, DawgNation's Jeff Sentell shared why Fran Brown taking the job at Syracuse shows UGA recruits at an entirely different level.

Brown was the top-rated recruiter in the country for this cycle. Did his departure force a single UGA recruit to rethink their decision?

Nope. Nada. Crickets.

This week's show also featured a drop-your-jaw rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" by the mother of a UGA commit and shared an in-depth look at why 5-star junior OT David Sanders Jr. is such a BIG priority for next year's recruiting class.

How many UGA commits are still alive seeking state titles this week? Sentell covered that info on this week's show, too.

We gave another deserving Dawg of the Week honor to 4-star Virginia LB commitment Chris Cole. on the show. The weekly show also included an update on top targets for the 2024 class and a way-too-early list of top targets for the 2025 cycle.

You can catch "Before the Hedges" every Wednesday at 8 PM on the DawgNation Facebook, Twitter and YouTube pages. "Hedges" also now streams every Wednesday night on the DawgNation.com home page.
