Winner - Kirby Smart

There's been a ton of buzz around some of the newer coaches and how they're recruiting but, what Georgia is doing deserves greater recognition. Kirby Smart holds commitments from 17 players with it's recruiting class ranking third in the SEC and fourth nationally. In his recruiting class however, Smart holds six top-100 commitments three of which are from five-star recruits. Georgia is in a great spot to finish with the Nation's top recruiting class as they're in a great position to land five-stars David Sanders Jr, Elijah Griffin, and Justus Terry.

Loser - Billy Napier

Along the same lines of Sam Pittman, Billy Napier's results on the recruiting trail haven't helped him in keeping his job. The Gators recruiting class ranks 46th in the Nation while ranking 15th in the SEC as Florida is only out recruiting Vanderbilt in conference. Napier only has eight players committed tow of which are four-star recruits. The on field results are going to have to change for Napier if he isn't going to land a recruiting class that saves his job.
