5-star EDGE almost forgets Georgia exists during commitment announcement
Texas v Georgia | Jonathan Bachman/GettyImagesGeorgia just missed on one of their top targets in the 2027 recruiting class on Monday. Five-star EDGE DJ Jacobs is from the state of Georgia, a legacy recruit for UGA, and the No. 1 overall player in the 2027 class who chose to commit to Ohio State over the Bulldogs and a few other schools.
This is a really big loss for Georgia because he is a legacy recruit who is an in-state prospect. Sure it isn't the end of the world losing this recruitment, but it is a tough one to overcome.
However, the biggest reason this loss will be tough to move past is because it seems like Georgia wasn't even close to winning this recruitment.
