Elite WR recruit projected to commit to Georgia football
Talented class of 2027 wide receiver recruit Gavin Honore is one of the top playmakers in his recruiting cycle. Honore plays high school football for Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana, California. Mater Dei is a national powerhouse and is where Georgia Bulldogs running back Nate Frazier played his high school football.
Honore is ranked as a three-star recruit. The rising junior is the No. 421 recruit in the nation and the No. 52 prospect in California, per 247Sports. Honore is the No. 54 wide receiver in the nation. The 5-foot-10, 170-pound receiver also runs track and has excellent speed.
The Mater Dei star is projected to commit to Georgia. Coach Kirby Smart and Georgia don't have a commitment in the class of 2027 yet, so it would be nice for the Bulldogs to land a foundational piece in the 2027 cycle.
The elite receiver was recently named as the MVP of a National Preps Showcase. Georgia offered Honore on April 1. Honore's recruitment has picked up recently and he's received recent scholarship offers from Texas, Texas Tech and Louisville.
Honore is a slot receiver with excellent quickness. He's a well-refined route runner and made a lot of his sophomore production running deeper routes.

Kirby Smart, Georgia Add Another Recruiting Win as Surge Continues

Kirby Smart, Georgia Add Another Recruiting Win as Surge Continues originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Head coach Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs continue to bolster the class of 2026 during an important recruiting period. Advertisement The Bulldogs had yet to surpass 10 commitments in the 2026 cycle at this time last month. After a number of high-profile official visits, though, things have certainly picked up. Marking the fourth commitment over the last two weeks, Georgia received a pledge from in-state offensive lineman Zachary Lewis on Monday. Lewis (6-foot-4, 270 pounds) plays for North Gwinnett High School in Suwanee, Georgia, where he ranks as the No. 32 interior offensive lineman and the No. 53 player in the state (247Sports). Georgia coach Kirby Smart leads his team onto the field before the start of the SEC Championship Game at Mercedes-Benz L. Jones / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Georgia hosted Lewis on an official visit over the weekend after he previously took an official trip to in-state rival Georgia Tech on May 30. South Carolina and North Carolina were also in contention for Lewis before he announced his decision. Advertisement 'I've grown up a Dawgs fan and now I get to be a Dawg!" Lewis said via On3's Hayes Fawcett. The Bulldogs began the month of June by landing highly touted cornerback Justice Fitzpatrick, the brother of former Alabama Crimson Tide standout and current Pittsburgh Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick. Justice Fitzpatrick, out of St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, ranks as a top-100 recruit and the No. 8 player at his position. Additionally, Georgia landed four-star defensive lineman Carter Luckie on May 31 after receiving a pledge from four-star wide receiver Ryan Mosley three days earlier. Advertisement Now holding 13 commitments to date, Smart and Co. sit fifth nationally and have an inside track to finish with another top-five class. Georgia hasn't finished outside the top five in nine consecutive years under Smart.

Former Georgia LB predicted to have breakout season with new school

Former Georgia LB predicted to have breakout season with new school Former Georgia Bulldogs linebacker Damon Wilson, who transferred to the Missouri Tigers this offseason, is expected to have a breakout season at Missouri. Wilson is ranked as the No. 3 transfer in the country and the No. 1 edge transfer. The 6-foot-4, 250-pound edge defender is just one of three players to be ranked as a five-star transfer, according to 247Sports. Wilson never had outstanding production at Georgia, but he was behind several NFL draft picks, like Jalon Walker and Mykel Williams, in Georgia's front seven rotation. As a sophomore, Wilson recorded 22 tackles, three sacks and forced two fumbles. He was poised to have a big season with Georgia in 2025, but instead opted to transfer to Missouri. His transfer means that Georgia lost all six of their leading sack producers from the 2024 college football season. Michael Middlehurst-Schwartz of USA TODAY envisions Wilson having a breakout season with his new school. Wilson is a former five-star recruit in the class of 2023. "The 6-4, 245-pounder could be a cornerstone of a Missouri defense that lost its top edge threat in second team All-SEC pick Johnny Walker Jr., and more opportunities to flash his explosiveness could vault him up draft boards," said Middlehurst-Schwartz. Wilson could elect to enter the 2026 NFL draft after the 2025 college football season. He has the physical potential to play in the NFL and could further help his draft stock with a productive junior season at Missouri. Middlehurst-Schwartz named Georgia wide receiver Zachariah Branch as another player that is poised to rise in the 2026 NFL draft.

Elite OL recruit announces commitment to Georgia football

The Georgia Bulldogs have added commitment No. 13 in the class of 2026. Georgia's latest commitment is from three-star offensive lineman Zachary Lewis. Lewis, a member of the 2026 recruiting cycle, plays high school football for North Gwinnett High School in Suwanee, Georgia. The 6-foot-4, 270-pound offensive lineman projects to play as an interior offensive lineman in college. Last season, Lewis and North Gwinnett advanced to the quarterfinals of the 6A playoffs before losing to Buford. Advertisement Lewis is ranked as the No. 86 recruit in Georgia, per the 247Sports Composite. He's the No. 69 interior offensive lineman in the country and the No. 780 recruit in the nation in the 2026 recruiting class. Lewis can squat 500 pounds, but is still looking to add strength and muscle to his frame. The North Gwinnett standout is a good student and committed to Georgia following his official visit to Athens from June 6-8. Lewis committed to Georgia over Florida and Georgia Tech. He took an official visit to Georgia Tech before he elected to commit to Georgia. He also holds recent scholarship offers from South Carolina and North Carolina. Lewis joins fellow in-state offensive lineman Graham Houston in committing to Georgia. The Bulldogs have the No. 6 recruiting class in the country. UGA's class is the highest ranked in the SEC.
