10 Biggest Georgia Recruiting Busts of the Mark Richt Era
070922 Tuscaloosa, AL : Georgia offensive tackle Trinton Sturdivant (77) celebrates with teammates after beating Alabama at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, AL September 22, 2007. BRANT SANDERLIN / Staff
No. 10: Trinton Sturdivant
Year – 2007
Position – Offensive Tackle
Why he’s a bust – Continued injuries
It’s hard to call a good guy like Sturdivant a bust, but unfortunately he truly was. Sturdivant was a 4-star prospect rated as the No. 9 offensive tackle in the nation, and was going to be the next big thing on Georgia’s line.
Unfortunately, three ACL tears ended both his Georgia and football career after a fantastic freshman season. It’s sad to think just how good Sturdivant could have been in the NFL had he been given the chance.
