Georgia capped off spring practice this year with their annual 2024 GDay spring scrimmage which now shifts the Bulldogs into the stage of the offseason. The spring transfer portal window is now at play and Georgia is feeling the effects of it. Running back Andrew Paul has entered the transfer portal.

Paul was part of the 2022 recruiting class for Georgia and was off to a hot start during his freshman season until he tore his ACL and was shut down for the year. He battled back from injury and had 129 yards on 29 attempts with a touchdown last season. Paul had a good showing at this year's GDay game with 44 rushing yards on four attempts and a touchdown. Unfortunately for Paul, Georgia's running back room is deep this season with the addition of Trevor Etienne, Roderick Robinson entering year two, Branson Robinson on the verge of coming back from his injury and three running backs joining the room in the 2024 class.

Georgia lost a litany of players to the portal immediately following the 2023 college football season. They also picked up eight total commitments from the portal to add to their roster. With the spring window now at play, it can be expected that Georgia will both lose players to the portal but also be on the lookout for any potential additions they want to make before the 2024 season officially kicks off.

Spring practice is a time of year where players get a feel for where they are on the depth chart and what kind of opportunities they see themselves getting when fall rolls around. Sometimes it can boil down to the room just being too deep. The Bulldogs are no stranger to losing names during the spring window as it has just become part of the college football circle of life.
