Not sure about receptions, but they’ve put some in the league during that time. Also, last 2 QBs were drafted - not to mention Fields who ended up at OSU - and Beck figures to be as well. Last OC is in NFL with Baltimore and his predecessor is HC at Arkansas. Hardly an offensive juggernaut, but perhaps perception is off base.

The perception is accurate.

Their most successful & productive Offensive player they've had over the last 5 years was a TE.

George Pickens for as talented as he is, never had more than 50 catches in a season at UGA.

Since 2015, that haven't had a single WR on their roster with 60 catches or more, or get more than 800yds receiving.

If you're a WR, UGA is not that attractive.

It is to the UGA lovers on CIS, but if you're a WR that wants targets & opportunities to put up numbers, it's not gonna be on the top of your list.

Eric Singleton took UGA off his list after visiting them, I'm sure it wasn't because they promised to make him the focal point of their Offense.

Yeah but they had Justin Fields who had more rushing attempts than passing in a UGA jersey and was caught on a hot mic complaining about not getting to throw the ball, so clearly the perception is wrong.

when you say some you mean 2.

George Pickens and Mcconkey. George Pickens would have went had he played at South Alabama.

They dont develop wrs at all they dont even evaluate them out of hs well...a whole bunch of bust

Hard to rack up those receptions when you miss almost the entire season due to an arrest.

He was pretty meh before then too though. I’d say it benefited us more long term though. We’d probably lose Horton if he stays.

Ok, not a Georgia fan as a disclaimer, but worry about fellow Canes fans and orange-green glasses. Why would WR go to Georgia? Might also ask why would WR go to Miami?
One obvious reason is to get paid.
Can argue offense may not be central to UGA’s titles, but have recently developed and placed far more skill players in NFL than Miami has. RBs aren’t a crazy number, so won’t even go there.
QBs: Kaaya was the last drafted in 2017 (6th). Who was the last Cane to actually play in the league? Vinny?
Just in the last few years Georgia had Fromm (5th) - similar to our signee Nickle from Milton HS -Bennett (4th), likely Beck and at least identified and signed Fields.
WRs: Hard to pump chest over our current 3 - Dorsett (Atlanta’s practice roster), Berrios, who shops every year for a roster spot, and KJ Osborn, a portal pick up who was just released by the Patriots and signed off wire by Washington.
One of our geniuses miscounted suggesting Georgia had 2. Currently Pickens (1st), Conley (2nd), McConkey (2nd), Hartman (3rd). Also developed old pal Cager, who had a career season with Georgia and developed as TE in NFL. So, Miami will add another in X - Georgia has 3 likely to play in NFL in Smith, Lovett and Bell.
Arbitrarily throwing out numbers as some sort of measure is senseless. WRs aren’t just worried about having 50-60 receptions or 800-plus yards. It’s about getting to the league and now also collecting NIL. Getting to NFL is also helped by quality of the offensive coordinator. Monken is a star playcaller with Baltimore. Pittman before him did well enough to get the Arkansas job.
Again, the hope is Miami lands every top WR, but let’s not act like we have a long track record of developing offensive talent and Georgia is playing with leather helmets.

Those aren't arbitrarily numbers.

It's a consistent show of their Offensive productivity as it pertains to WR's.

UGA's WR's are not that productive in college because their system is not geared towards getting them the ball. That's not conjecture, it's an unadulterated fact backed by empirical data. Their WR's do not produce at a high rate in college & that has been the case since 2016.

Todd Monken has nothing to do with a WR in the Portal wanting to or not wanting to go Georgia, what is even the point in mentioning him if he's not Coaching there anymore? Sam Pittman? What does he have to do with WR production???

I'm not even going waste my time trying to argue anything else you're saying because there's actually nothing to argue.

Eric Singleton Jr, the #1 rated player currently in the Portal, had UGA on his list of potential transfer schools. He visited UGA & afterwards took them off his list.

Why? Because he wants to sign with a school where his production won't take a decline due to the system he's playing in. If that wasn't the case, based on everything you're claiming on behalf of UGA, there'd be no reason for him not to sign with them, but yet here we are...
 
Really good job by UGA of identifying Fields.

Right, they’re not arbitrary numbers. Really. And the coordinator has nothing to do with WR development and production. If it’s about potential production, then Singleton should be signed, sealed and delivered to Miami. Singleton knew the UGA offense when he visited, so likely more about money than the system.
