Blair Walsh's replacement?

Georgia has earned another commitment ... but not for this signing class.

Kicker Marshall Morgan has told several recruiting sites that he has opted for the Bulldogs. (DawgPost.com and Georgia247sports.com are each reporting it.) The 6-foot-2 Morgan will be a senior this fall at Archbishop McCarthy High School in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

South Florida also happens to be the same area that Georgia got current kicker Blair Walsh. Walsh is from Boca Raton, Fla. and will be a senior next year, as will backup kicker Brandon Bogotay and punter Drew Butler. So the plan appears to be for Morgan to be given the chance to kick as a freshman, just as Walsh and Butler did.

Here's a story on Morgan from last April's Miami Herald.

And here's a bio on Morgan on the web site for Chris Sailers, the kicking guru.

Morgan becomes the second commitment for the 2012 class, joining Gainesville receiver C.J. Curry.

Seth,

Is there a dedicated specialist coach for the place kickers and punters? The punters and kickers under Richt have been pretty phenomenal.
