Georgia football: Top 10 offensive players of the Ray Goff era (1989-95)
8. Hason Graham
One position that Georgia wasn’t known for being exceptionally great at until Goff became head coach was wide receiver. Sure there were some like Lindsay Scott in the early 1980’s, but receivers like him were few and far between.
That began to change when Goff took over and many of Georgia’s best receivers of all-time were produced during the Ray Goff era. One in particular takes the no. 8 spot on our countdown: Hason Graham.
Graham played at Georgia from 1992-to-1994 and played alongside other great receivers, Andre Hastings, Juan Daniels and Brice Hunter.
As a freshman he was mainly just a supporter while Hastings led the receiving corps. But Graham did catch 13 passes for 214 yards with two touchdowns. Graham broke out in 1993 with a 699-yard season on 36 receptions with five touchdowns.
His last year at Georgia proved to be one of the best in school history. He caught 46 passes for 881 yards with nine touchdowns that tied Hunter’s school record. He’s now tied for second all-time with touchdown catches in a season behind Terrence Edwards.
Graham left Georgia with 1,834 receiving yards on 95 receptions with 16 touchdowns. He’s often overlooked because Hunter smashed career records, Hastings led the receivers on the 1992 team and Daniels was the senior leader at receiver in 1995. But he will not be overlooked on this countdown.
