Georgia football made the top-five for 4-star WR Marcus Burke

Marcus Burke, a 4-star wide receiver out of Jacksonville, Florida, has released his top-five schools.

Burke, a junior at Trinity Christian Academy in the class of 2021, included Georgia, Florida, Miami, Georgia Tech and Penn State in his top-five.

Right now, 247Sports sees Burke winding up in Gainesville, with all three of the Crystal Ball predictions favoring the Gators.

Burke ranks as the nation’s No. 301 overall player, No. 52 ranked wide receiver and as the 46th player in the state of Florida.

Last week, Burke visited Florida for junior day and the next day named the Gators as his leader.

Burke, at 6-foot-3 and 180 pounds, was offered by Georgia back in September.

Right now, Georgia has the nation’s 17th ranked recruiting class for the 2021 cycle.

Headlining Georgia’s class is 5-star quarterback Brock Vandagriff out of Bogart, Georgia. Vandagriff ranks as the No. 12 overall player in the country.

Aside from Vandagriff, Kirby Smart has secured commitments from 4-star athlete David Daniel and 3-star defensive tackle Marlin Dean.

For the time being, recruiting is suspended nationwide as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. That includes both on and off campus recruiting.

As far as recruiting goes, it’s not time to hit the panic button based on Georgia’s No. 17 ranking. Smart has secured the nation’s No. 1 class three years in a row and is on a quest to make it four. This year, though, it’ll just take a bit longer to climb up the rankings than in years past.
