UGA flips a four-star receiver from a conference rival

Joe VitaleKirby Smart has been able to flip a prospect during each recruiting cycle during his tenure and he didn’t disappoint DawgNation in keeping the streak alive.

Four-star wideout Jermaine Burton from Calabasas, California announced on Wednesday, that he has flipped his long-time LSU commitment and will sign a letter of intent with Georgia.

The 6’,1”, 190 pound athlete is ranked as the nation’s No. 8 wideout, No. 52 overall prospect and the No. 6 overall prospect in California.

The Dawgs now have 18 signees/commitments and the nation’s No. 5 class. Only Burton, five-star tackle Broderick Jones (Lithonia, GA) and four-star center Sedrick Van Pran (New Orleans) remain unsigned.
