Hey AFD...you got any 'inside operative' stuff on any of the walk-ons, besides what he can just pull up and read in the profiles? Seter and the other two?

Unfortunately, Stetson Bennett was the only walk-on QB that made a splash in the past year. John Seter was a freshman on the team but I heard nary a word about him (and he didn't play in the 2018 G-Day game). Christian Kerut joined the team for spring practice, but didn't play in the G-Day game. Matthew Downing should be joining the team next month.

RS Freshman John Seter, 6'3", 180 lbs. - completed 117 of 198 (59.1%) passes for 2,002 yds w/ 21 TDs & 9 INTs and rushed 3x for 2 yds as a senior at Lovejoy HS; committed to UGA as a preferred walk-on on 31 January 2017; https://www.hudl.com/profile/7984043/John-Seter

Freshman Christian Kerut, 6'3", 215 lbs. - completed 104 of 154 passes (67.5%) for 1,650 yds w/ 19 TDs & 1 INT and rushed 10x for 93 yds w/ 1 TD as a senior at Metairie Park Country Day HS in New Orleans, LA; http://www.hudl.com/profile/3436656/Christian-Kerut

Freshman Matthew Downing, 5'11.5", 192 lbs. - preferred walk-on committed to UGA on 3 February 2018; Region 7-AAAAAA Offensive POY; completed 185 of 309 (59.9%) passes for 2,569 yds w/ 25 TDs & 5 INTs, rushed 70x for 656 yds (9.4 ypc) & 3 TDs as a senior: https://www.hudl.com/profile/4061588/Matthew-Downing

Fwiw, if Jake Fromm and Justin Fields went down w/ injuries this season, Kirby would call on Mecole Hardman and/or Tray Bishop to play the position as they were HS QBs.

Downing is an interesting guy...I read another article about him. 2500+ yards passing, 900+ yards rushing...Class 6A player of the year. Holy Cow! This looks like yet another one that the so-called recruiting experts panned because he's only 5'11" or so. This might be a pretty good get...hopefully nobody gets hurt, but sounds like a pretty good safety net, just in case.

Downing kid sounds like another Stetson, and his film is pretty impressive. Then again, if we are down to our 3rd stringer, we are likely not competing for an SEC title this year.

Stetson will transfer to Jones Community College in Ellisville, Mississippi. Fwiw, the Bobcats were 8-2 last season (both losses, by 13 and 4 points, respectively, were to JUCO National Champion East Mississippi Community College).
