On Monday, Zion Branch, a 4-star safety from Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas, Nevada, took to Twitter to announce a scholarship offer from Georgia as well.
247Sports has Branch listed as the No. 3 safety and No. 74 overall prospect in the 2022 recruiting class.
Although Branch is listed as a safety, at 6-foot-3 190 pounds, I could see Kirby targeting Branch for the star position in the 3-4 Georgia defense, using him as more of a hybrid player.
Branch holds offers from Texas A&M, Auburn and USC among 17 others.
Right now, per 247, Southern Cal is viewed as the favorite to land Branch.
On Branch, 247Sports wrote:
“Well rounded defender that can cover, make plays on ball and impact the run game closer to the line of scrimmage. Versatility to fit at various spots, with chance to help out in the box. Natural feel in space and roams the secondary with confidence.”
After a great conversation with @CoachBGA l am blessed and humbled to say that I have received an offer from The University of Georgia❕#GoDawgs🐾@KirbySmartUGA @DHill39 @bangulo @adamgorney @GregBiggins @BrandonHuffman @BishopGormanFB pic.twitter.com/TtZWm6qYJ6
