Welcome into the latest episode of Recruiting Down South.

The Saturday N South Recruiting Podcast.

I'm your host Michael Bratton.

Go by SEC Mike on Twitter.

Give me a follow there. On this episode we'll recap the early signing day period and

there was commits happening obviously the big story of the day Georgia just kind of
