Georgia Gets Signing Day Commitment From In-State OL
By Jerry Trotta
Georgia has managed to land a flock of top recruits in the 2020 cycle, but, as college football's top programs always do, Kirby Smart and Co. were still hoping to add some more coveted prospects on National Signing Day.
Well, the Bulldogs managed to do just that on Wednesday.
3-star offensive line recruit Cameron Kinnie took to Twitter at the commencement of NSD to confirm that he's committed to Georgia.

Kinnie, who had fielded offers from Army and Air Force exceptionally late into the recruiting process, becomes the 24th member of the Bulldogs' signing class, including eighth from the state of Georgia and the seventh O-lineman.
The 6-foot-3, 305-pound recruit played defensive tackle in high school, but he will convert to the other side of the ball for Georgia and new OL coach Matt Luke. Prior to the transition, 247Sports rated him as the No. 117 DT and No. 1,630 overall recruit in the 2020 class.
Georgia has announced the signings of:

- RB Daijun Edwards
- WR Ladd McConkey
- OL Cameron Kinnie
They also have commitments from two O-linemen who are expected to sign today:
- OL Broderick Jones
- OL Sedrick Van Pran
The Collins Hill High School product took an official visit to Athens in the final week of January, and that was said to be the where he was swept off his feet.
We couldn't think of a better program for Kinnie to establish himself as an offensive lineman. This is an outright win for both him and the Dawgs.
