There are still moments when Georgia sophomore tight end Brock Bowers believes that coming to Athens from Napa, California, was like moving from one country to another.

Of course, there are plenty of Bulldogs opponents from last season who believe Bowers came from another planet.

The 2021 national champions ran the gamut in personnel, ranging from former walk-on quarterback Stetson Bennett to three-star defensive lineman Jordan Davis to the slew of five-star standouts such as running back Zamir White, offensive tackle Jamaree Salyer, defensive tackles Jalen Carter and Travon Walker, inside linebacker Nakobe Dean and cornerback Keelee Ringo.
