The Georgia Bulldogs were successful in recruiting the No. 1 quarterback, Jared Curtis, from the Class of 2026 this May. He had committed to UGA back in March 2024 but reopened his recruitment later in October.

Since joining, Curtis has been a great driving force behind head coach Kirby Smart's recruiting efforts. During a big recruiting weekend for Georgia, he sent a strong message to his fellow prospects.
"Everyone at Georgia this weekend for the OV… make the right choice! Go dawgs 🐶🐶" he posted on X
Hailing from the Nashville Christian High School, Curtis led the school to a 12-1 record and a Tennessee Division II-A state championship, the school's first in nine years. He completed 179 of 255 passes for 2,830 yards with 40 touchdowns and 3 interceptions.
Curtis also showcased dual-threat capability, carrying the ball 88 times for 637 yards and 18 touchdowns.

Multiple stars are to visit the Dawgs this weekend. Wide Receiver Craig Dandridge, EDGE Khamari Brooks, cornerback Justice Fitzpatrick, tight end Kaiden Prothro, defensive linebacker Carter Luckie, wide receiver Cederian Morgan and defensive back Kaelan Jones.
On Wednesday, UGA added five-star running back Ezavier Crowell and linebacker Izayia Williams. In the four-star group, wide receiver Brandon Bennett, defensive linebacker James Johnson, defensive back Jordan Smith and cornerback Peyton Dyer will be present.

Smart has been snubbed twice this month by top recruits. First, five-star Jackson Cantwell, who was leaning toward UGA and had a strong relationship with Curtis, chose Mario Cristobal–led Miami at the last minute. Second, tight end Mark Bowman recently opted for USC over the Dawgs.
