Georgia has its quarterback within the Class of 2026. Jared Curtis, who performs at Nashville (Tenn.) Christian College, dedicated to the Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon.
Curtis is ranked No. 9 total and the No. 1 quarterback within the class within the 247Sports Composite. He selected the Bulldogs over a protracted record that features Alabama, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Texas.
He’s the primary commit in Georgia’s 2026 class. The Bulldogs not too long ago put the ending touches on the top-ranked class within the 2024 cycle and have six commits, together with two five-star prospects, of their 2025 class.
What does this imply for Georgia?
Anybody who has adopted recruiting is aware of lots can change between now and when Curtis can truly enroll at Georgia (presumably in January 2026) — particularly since Georgia doesn’t have a present quarterback dedication for the 2025 class. The Bulldogs are nonetheless after JuJu Lewis, the five-star USC commit from Carrollton, Ga., who by flipping may change the dynamics for Curtis.
But when this holds over the subsequent 20 months, and Curtis’ inventory stays excessive, then it’s an excellent get for Georgia. The eye, after all, stays on who it is going to get from the 2025 class, with four-stars Ryan Montgomery and Matt Zollers within the combine. That quarterback within the ’25 class shall be very key, with Carson Beck anticipated to show professional after subsequent yr and solely Gunner Stockton and Ryan Puglisi behind them. Georgia did attempt to get one other quarterback for this yr, however UNLV switch Jayden Maiava flipped to USC after initially selecting the Bulldogs. Georgia will seemingly proceed to search for depth on the place within the post-spring portal window.
