HATTIESBURG, Miss. — It’s clear that the coaching change at UGA has made a significant impact on recruiting.

Marlon Davidson, the nation’s No. 2 defensive end, told unofficial SEC Country reporter Ben Davis, the nation’s No. 1 inside linebacker, that UGA is in good shape with him because of the addition of Kirby Smart.

“Georgia is coming a little harder now that Kirby is there with (UGA defensive line coach Tracy) Rocker,” Davidson told Davis. “It’s looking pretty good.”

Davidson, a 5-star prospect who is committed to Auburn, maintains that his commitment is only “75 percent” solid.

It should be noted that Ben Davis, another 5-star prospect, announced on Monday that UGA is his leader.
