Here is the Feb. 23 edition of The Daily Recap presented by JFQ Lending.

Nixon’s recruitment heats up

Before the new year, defensive end Isaiah Nixon (Lakewood/St. Petersburg, Fla.) was mostly receiving mid-major scholarship offers. However, 2022 has been kind to Nixon when it comes to the bigger programs taking interest.

Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia and LSU have all offered in February. Miami, Ole Miss, Penn State and Utah all offered prior to the SEC programs jumping into the picture.

New outside linebackers coach Chidera Uzo-Diribe extended the offer to Nixon.

"He told me I have great length and I can get to the quarterback," Nixon said. "He said I have a great burst, a great start. He said I can also play coverage too. He said I'm going to be a great fit at Georgia."

‘Mind-blowing’ offer

Following a conversation with head coach Kirby Smart in January, class of 2024 receiver Ny Carr (Colquitt County/Moultrie, Ga.) felt the Bulldogs were very interested in him. His belief became reality when three weeks later, Georgia extended a scholarship offer.

Carr described the offer as “mind-blowing.”

In addition to Georgia, Arkansas, Michigan, Penn State and South Carolina have offered Carr.

Baseball: Georgia defeats Wofford

Ben Anderson went 4-for-4 at the plate en route to Georgia’s 7-1 win over Wofford. Included in his four hits was his second home run of the season.

“It feels good. I feel like I’m seeing the ball well and the hits are falling,” Anderson said. “All you can do is try to stay the same. It’s just about trying to put together level swings, make good swings on good pitches. The hits are falling this year. I just hope to keep it up.”

Hoops: Georgia loses again

Georgia’s awful basketball season continued with a 91-77 loss against Texas A&M. The Bulldogs actually shot 60 percent from the field and still managed to lose by 14 points.
