ATHENS — RJ Godfrey is coming home to Georgia, via his commitment to the UGA basketball program.
Godfrey, a former 3-star prospect out of North Gwinnett High School, played the past two seasons at Clemson before entering the NCAA transfer portal.
The Bulldogs are getting some muscle by adding the 6-foot-8, 228-pound Godfrey — the son of former Georgia linebacker Randall Godfrey, who played at UGA from 1992-95 before an 11-year NFL career.
Godfrey appeared in 36 games last season, coming off the bench to average 6.1 points and 3.4 rebounds in 15.5 minutes per outing.
Coach Mike White has added strong personnel this offseason, in addition to Godfrey, the Bulldogs now have …
