Kirby Smart is going hard on the recruiting trail, but he actually got a commitment on Saturday thanks to the camp Georgia was hosting in Athens, Georgia. He was able to get a commitment from humongous 6'5", 275-pound Luke Griffin out of Chatsworth, Georgia.

His was at that camp in Athens over the weekend and impressed the staff —- and one 247Sports writer —- enough to get a scholarship offer.

Obviously he jumped at the opportunity to stay in-state and play for the Bulldogs. He won't be on campus until 2019, but that's still a huge commitment to have if you're Kirby Smart, especially if Griffin puts on even more weight and somehow gets taller in that time.
