Georgia received a nice surprise on Thanksgiving Day, as Rivals.com 4-star running back Devwah Whaley committed to the Bulldogs. 

A Texas native, Whaley chose Georgia over Arkansas, Texas A&M, and Texas. At 6'0", 205 pounds, he's not only powerful and strong, but fast and elusive. Whaley truly has the capabilities of coming in right away and contributing in college. 

The question is, will that be in Athens?

A few days after he committed to the program, Mark Richt was fired. Since the firing of the former head coach became public, Whaley has yet to comment on how this could impact his recruitment. 

Georgia will have to navigate the expected choppy waters -- until a new coaching staff in place. It could ultimately lead to some current commitments rethinking their pledges to the program.
