Going to be amazing to see 6' 3" Edmonds and 6' 4" Dijon Lee playing at CB. Never seen this much length at CB.

Huge get to say the least! Let's hope he stays committed with the crazy NIL era and the fact he's from Georgia. Kirby won't give up as we all know especially a player with Edmonds caliber.
Btw, it's early, but 3 of the 4 committed thus far in the 2026 class are from the Peach State.

He would be great. Hope we land him. And hope he stays.

Agreed. From his and his mom's comments he loves the coaches, players, the facilities and campus. Not all of them are money prostitutes.
