Four-star wide receiver Craig Dandridge indicated in a conversation with On3's Jeremy Johnson this week that he is truly undecided and keeping an open mind with every official visit.
Dandridge will visit the Oklahoma Sooners this weekend.
The receiver stressed he has liked the recruiting process.
'I mean, a lot of people wanna say like, they're like really pressured with all the thoughts, but, I'm just enjoying it all, man,' Dandridge said. 'I really took the time to like, just think like, I'm blessed to be in this situation at all. Being able to pick from these top schools, I can't go wrong.'

While that's a great attitude to have, it's not necessary what the Bulldogs want to hear.

That's especially true of Dandridge's conclusion that he "can't go wrong" with his recruitment decision.
The Bulldogs would prefer the Milton (Ga) Cambridge wideout feel that any choice but Georgia is the wrong one.
Dandridge has a few more days to decide. The receiver will announce his commitment decision on June 26.
Oklahoma will be the last school Dandridge visits before that commitment day.
In addition to Georgia and Oklahoma, the receiver is also considering the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, Tennessee Volunteers and Stanford Cardinal according to Johnson.
The 247Sports Composite rankings rated Dandridge the No. 38 receiver and 26th Georgia prospect in the 2026 recruiting class.

Additionally, Dandridge is the No. 237 overall recruit in 2026.
On3's Recruiting Prediction Machine projected Georgia as having a 35.6% chance of receiving a commitment from Dandridge.

Former WNBA Star Gets Ripped For 'Nasty' Hailey Van Lith Message
Former WNBA Star Gets Ripped For 'Nasty' Hailey Van Lith Message originally appeared on The Spun. Chicago Sky rookie Hailey Van Lith is trending on social media this weekend because of something she didn't even do. Advertisement The Sky selected Van Lith with the No. 11 overall pick in this year's WNBA Draft. She helped out her stock tremendously by averaging 17.9 points and 5.4 assists per game at TCU. Not only was she named Big 12 Player of the Year, she took the program to the Elite Eight. Van Lith is still trying to figure out her role in Chicago, but that hasn't stopped her from making an impact. The TCU product is currently averaging 5.2 points and 1.3 assists per game for the Sky. Despite getting off to a respectable start this season, Van Lith has been publicly called out by a five-time WNBA All-Star. During an appearance on the "Let Her Shoot" podcast, Angel McCoughtry questioned if Van Lith is in the WNBA because of her social media following. Advertisement "Hailey Van Lith, she's a decent player," McCoughtry said, via Sporting News. "Are there players out there who may be better than Hailey Van Lith? I believe so. They're not popular... If Hailey Van Lith had 10,000 followers, would she be in the league? Just her true talent, take away the followers."

Mandatory Credit: Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn ImagesKamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images It didn't take long for WNBA fans to rip McCoughtry for this message. "That's so nasty man," one fan said. "HVL had a successful college career and lead TCU to an elite 8 in the '25 NCAA tourney after they were a 2nd round exit in the WBIT the szn prior. It's normal for rookies to struggle, most take an adjustment period. Sucks to see old ppl be so hateful." Advertisement "The way the WNBA media covers their league is so toxic," a second fan wrote. "It's fair to ponder Hailey Van Lith's upside as a player. It's also reasonable to debate her fit with the Chicago Sky. But to suggest she would not be qualified to be in the WNBA if she didn't have a large social media following is…an asinine stretch of a take," another fan replied. "This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard," a fourth person commented. Van Lith has not responded to McCoughtry's claim. At this point, she wouldn't gain anything from it. Fans will get to see Van Lith in action this Saturday against the Phoenix Mercury.

Braves' Chris Sale goes on 15-day IL with fractured rib cage suffered on diving catch
Chris Sale made an excellent diving stop on a grounder by Juan Soto for the first out of the ninth inning to finish off his start against the New York Mets on Wednesday night. Yet going hard to the ground cost the veteran left-hander a trip to the injured list. The Atlanta Braves announced on Saturday that Sale is going to the 15-day IL with a fractured ribcage. The injury occurred as Sale pitches his best game of the season, with 8 2/3 scoreless innings, five hits and one walk allowed, and seven strikeouts. Advertisement The reigning National League Cy Young Award winner has a 2.52 ERA (third among NL starting pitchers) and 5-4 record in 15 starts, compiling 114 strikeouts in 89 1/3 innings. With Wednesday's 5-0 win, the Braves (34-40) had victories in six of their past eight games, part of a stretch during which Atlanta won seven of 10. Perhaps more importantly for the NL East standings, For the Mets, the defeat was their fifth straight in what's become a seven-game losing streak that's knocked them out of first place (45-31) in the division. Sale's IL stint is backdated to Thursday, which would make him eligible to return on July 3. However, a rib injury could keep him out for a longer period. Sale suffered a stress fracture in his right rib cage before the 2022 season that sidelined him for more than three months.
