That sound you hear is Kirby Smart, James Coley, and the rest of the Georgia coaching staff clinking glasses, because they just realized a major recruiting coup. After backing out of his commitment to the Oklahoma Sooners, all-world 2021 quarterback prospect Brock Vandagriff announced Tuesday morning that he's joining up with the Dawgs.

Vandagriff, an local product out of Prince Avenue Christian School in Bogart, Georgia, just a quick jaunt from Athens, is the No. 8 overall prospect in the nation according to the 247Sports composite rankings, as well as the No. 1-ranked pro style quarterback. He may be considered a bit undersized compared to the prototypical stud -- he's listed at just over 6-2 and around 200 pounds -- but it's quite possible that this kid is still growing.

And it must be said that there are a whole lot of measurables are there.

All told, the news is a big win for UGA, and the culmination of what was already a frustrating setback for Lincoln Riley and the Sooners.
