The Georgia Football fall camp is chugging along. A lot of young players are really looking impressive in camp. Kirby Smart had a few interesting things to say about some of the young guns who are making an impact on camp. Chip Towers of Dawgnation.com recorded the following quotes from Kirby on Camp. He started with Andrew Thomas who is currently seeing time with the 1st team:

"“He’s an extremely mature kid. He studies hard, he’s serious, he’s very business-like. He’s got a great approach to the game. … I would definitely say Andrew is a guy that’s catching up quick. He has the athletic ability to play multiple positions, meaning inside and outside.”"

Mecole Hardman, the sophomore who has transferred over to wide receiver and people are excited:

"“He’s made some plays. First of all, it’s not that he’s faster than he was in the spring but he’s more confident, which makes him faster. He hears the call and knows what to do. He’s had some pretty spectacular plays. I still think he needs to work on his hands and natural catching the ball. But he’s a good athlete. I think he’s found a good home. He’s tough. He plays the game very similar to Isaiah McKenzie, when it comes to the toughness and competitiveness that you want. He’s gotten more comfortable in our system so he’s able to do more.”"

He talked a bit about a few of the young weapons who are demanding play time:

"“We’ve got a lot of guys who need the ball in their hands. Y’all got to see Swift the other day. He’s done a good job. He’s a very serious, competitive young man. Mark Webb, he’s a very serious, competitive young man, too. Those guys are starting to hit that Day 8 wall; some of them haven’t had to compete at this level for this long. But we’re going to keep pushing them through because we think those guys can help us this year.”"
