Under the leadership of head coach Kirby Smart, the Georgia Bulldogs continue to excel in recruiting, consistently securing top talent despite changes in college football dynamics. Smart’s tenure has seen remarkable success, including two national championships and 13 or more victories in the last three seasons. The Bulldogs’ dominance on the recruiting trail has been a key factor in their achievements.

In 2024, Georgia secured the top-ranked recruiting class, according to 247Sports, although their Class of 2025 currently sits at No. 8 with only five commits so far. However, the Bulldogs made a significant addition on Saturday by landing a commitment from highly touted quarterback Jared Curtis, a 4-star prospect from Nashville.

Curtis, known for his strong arm and versatility, brings a promising skill set to Georgia. Standing at around 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds, he transitioned from playing running back to quarterback, earning recognition as a top performer in Tennessee’s high school football scene. His ability to deliver deep passes and execute timing-based routes adds depth to Georgia’s quarterback roster.

While Curtis still needs to refine his game, particularly in reading complex defenses, he shows promise as one of the top quarterbacks in the 2026 recruiting class. His diverse skill set makes him adaptable to various offensive systems, making him an ideal addition to Georgia’s quarterback lineup.

In 2023, Curtis led Nashville Christian to the semifinals of Tennessee’s Division II-A playoffs, demonstrating his capability as both a passer and a rusher. With his arrival, Georgia’s quarterback competition is expected to intensify, contributing to the team’s continued success in the SEC.
