| Quote: DT Jeffrey Whitaker, 6-3/295, Warner Robins (Ga.)
ASSETS: Incredible overall body structure and tremendous strength.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: Becoming a better pass blocker by using arms and hands as weapons and disengaging offensive linemen quicker.
MOST IMPRESSIVE PLAY: In the first quarter he hustled down the line of scrimmage and caught the quarterback trying to reverse his field for a three-yard loss.
CONCLUSION: Has 18 offers, and I am surprised he does not have twice that many. He is one of the best-looking defensive tackles I have seen on the hoof this year. If he maintains his current size and conditioning he should become a force at the next level.

| Believe UT will be in it, probably Mahoney and Quarles are the only 2 ahead of him on UT's big board IMO. | |

| Sounds very good. There is absolutely no way UGA can get both Whitaker and Thornton, if either of them, with all the commits on the DL they already have. Looks like we will be battling Auburn for both of them... | |

| UGA guys are saying they have really backed off Whitaker and are pressing Thornton. Of course, the Barn guys are saying they are going to land both of them... | |

| seriously i think georgia is no competition at all for these 2 guys. How would georgia coaches recruit against the other kids top team when the other team just bi*ch slapped them? Only way is see any of these 2 going to georgia is if they really dont wanna win. I am almost positive that neither will go to georgia | |

| Both Thornton and Whitaker are higher on their board than Mahoney. | |
