4-star Georgia WR commit shuts down recruitment amid Michigan rumors
4-star Georgia WR commit shuts down recruitment amid Michigan rumors Four-star Georgia Bulldogs wide receiver commitment Brady Marchese has shut down his recruitment. Marchese ended his recruitment just hours after many experts predicted the Michigan Wolverines would flip him. The 6-foot-1, 185-pound pass catcher has been committed to Georgia since March 2025. Marchese plays high school football for Cartersville High School in Cartersville, Georgia. The 247Sports Composite ranks Marchese as the No. 42 wide receiver in the country and the No. 29 player in Georgia. The Cartersville star is the No. 250 recruit in the nation. Marchese has risen significantly up the recruiting rankings since his commitment to Georgia football. He's one of 13 commitments Georgia has in the class of 2026. The Bulldogs have the nation's No. 6 recruiting class in the 2026 cycle and the SEC's best recruiting class so far. Marchese, four-star Vance Spafford and three-star Ryan Mosley are Georgia's three wide receiver commitments in the class of 2026. Marchese shutting down his recruitment is a big win for Georgia in the middle of official visit season. Georgia has a strong pitch to wide receiver recruits since they'll get the opportunity to play alongside five-star UGA quarterback commit Jared Curtis. Marchese has elite speed. He posted speeds of over 22 miles per hour during his junior season. Marchese's speed helps him blow by opposing defensive backs and he does an outstanding job of creating separation in his impressive highlights.
