Georgia Football adds another top talent in RB James Cook
Welcome to RBU:
It’s not like UGA was lacking talent at running back. With the nations no.1 back in Zamir White committed, few were expecting Georgia to get another potential 5-star back. D’Andre Swift, Brian Herrien and Elijah Holyfield make up an already strong backfield. Cook and White fill in for Nick Chubb and Sony Michel and keep reload n already strong unit.
Cook is the perfect complement to White. He’s a slippery all-purpose back who could end up seeing plenty of time in the slot in Athens. There are real comparisons to Nick Chubb and Sony Michel here. White is a complete back, with plenty of power to go alongside a surprising burst. Cook is shiftier and could fill the Michel role in the UGA offense.
Adding both of these guys to Georgia confirms UGA’s reputation as RBU. We saw this year just how dangerous this team can be when it’s rotating backs and keeping their legs fresh. it will once again have 5 legit threats in this department in 2018. The highest rated 3 of those will all be with the team through 2019.
Combine this with dual-threat QB in Justin Fields heading to Athens and it’s clear this running game is going to be dangerous. Putting all these guys between the hedges is going to be fun to watch.
