The Georgia Bulldogs have been National Champions for a full week now with the Championship parade and celebration held over the weekend in Athens.

We've heard from the majority of the draft eligible players on whether they're staying one more year at Georgia or moving on; except for the quarterbacks.

Stetson Bennett has not said whether he will return for a final season with the Bulldogs. And the same for J.T. Daniels, whom most thing will enter the transfer portal looking for an opportunity to start.

Head coach Kirby Smart will have a big quarterback room heading into the 2022 season with Brock Vandagriff, Carson Beck and incoming freshman Gunner Stockton.

Brandon Adams, who covers the Georgia Bulldogs for DawgNation.com, joined the Midday Show to discuss who he believes could be the starter next season.

"I think that Georgia has to have an open competition at quarterback this year," Adams told Andy and Randy.

"What Stetson Bennett has done, puts him on the top shelf of Georgia football history forever...from that standpoint I think that he will always be appreciated but that does not necessarily mean that he's guaranteed to be the starting quarterback next season. I give him the first rep on the first day of spring practice. Then after that, I would let the chips fall where they may."

Who does he think will ultimately be the starter Week 1 vs Oregon?

"In an open competition situation, I believe my money would probably be on Brock Vandagriff who, of all the young quarterbacks that Georgia's going to have...I think that Vandagriff is the most intriguing prospect. I think he might be the guy that has the chance to stabilize the Georgia quarterback situation."
