One-time UGA commit includes Georgia football in top-eight

Jared Wilson, a former Georgia football commit, included UGA in his top-eight schools.

Georgia, LSU, Auburn, Florida State, Clemson, Arkansas, Florida and North Carolina.

That’s the top-eight for 2021 3-star offensive guard Jared Wilson, who hails from Clemmons, North Carolina.

Wilson originally committed to Georgia back in November and then backed off that commitment in January. On Sunday, he released his top-eight, and it looks like he’s still strongly considering the Bulldogs.

The 6-foot-4, 323 pound junior ranks as America’s No. 383 overall prospect, No. 17 offensive guard and No. 20 in the state of North Carolina.

Right now, 75% of the crystal ball predictions on 247Sports have Wilson signing with Georgia when all is said and done.

Wilson stayed committed to Georgia through the Sam Pittman to Matt Luke transition, but with him still visiting so many other schools, he thought it was best to back off his commitment.

Wilson tweeted after decommitting from Georgia in February:

“Georgia remains one of my top choices for my college academic and football career but at this time, my family and I believe that we need to fully explore all the options that are available.”

“I have an immense amount of respect for the University of Georgia and for their interest in me. It was hard for me to say I was committed to UGA while visiting other schools. At this time I am re-opening my recruitment and de-committing from the University of Georgia. No interviews please.”

Wilson visited Florida State and Florida in early March, prior to the coronavirus shutting down in-person recruiting.
