4-star Georgia State OT commit projected to flip to UGA

Four-star Georgia State offensive tackle commit is a late riser in the recruiting rankings. Will he flip to Georgia?

Four-star Georgia State Panthers offensive tackle commitment Dennis Uzochukwu recently received a scholarship offer from the Georgia Bulldogs.
The 6-foot-6, 285-pound offensive tackle has been committed to Georgia State since July. Former Georgia Bulldogs running backs head coach Dell McGee is now the head coach at Georgia State. It’d hurt McGee to lose Uzochukwu, who is one of his top commitments in the class of 2025.
On3 ranks Uzochukwu as the No. 189 recruit in the country and the No. 22 prospect in Georgia. The talented offensive tackle plays high school football for Peachtree Ridge High School in Suwanee, Georgia.
Uzochukwu, who also plays high school basketball, attended the Georgia-Tennessee game. The Peachtree Ridge standout has good athleticism, length and mobility. He would be a welcome addition to Georgia’s No. 1 recruiting class. The Bulldogs have commitments from four offensive linemen in the 2025 cycle, so they certainly could add a fifth commitment.
Uzochukwu is projected to flip from Georgia State to Georgia according to 247Sports and On3. He plans to visit Georgia for the UMass game.

Georgia football looking to flip five-star DT

Will Mykel Williams and other USC Trojans class of 2022 commitments stick with the program after Clay Helton’s firing?

The Georgia Bulldogs were among the schools seeking a commitment from elite defensive tackle recruit Mykel Williams, but Williams committed to the USC Trojans in June.

Now, things have changed with the USC football program following their rough 42-28 loss to Stanford. The Trojans fired head coach Clay Helton, who has been on the hot seat for a long time, following the loss.

Who will be the next head coach of the Southern California Trojans? Georgia’s Dan Lanning could be a target with the way the UGA defense has played in 2021. Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports

Will Mykel Williams and other USC Trojans class of 2022 commitments stick with the program? USC has a lot of allure regardless of their coach, but the program will be in transition and hasn’t performed up to standards in recent seasons.

Mykel Williams is a five-star defensive tackle from Columbus, Georgia, who stars for Hardaway High School.

The Georgia defense has been extremely impressive to start the 2021 college football season. UGA has displayed a powerful recruiting message on the defensive side of the field. The Bulldogs defense has more sacks (10) and points off defensive touchdowns (14) than points allowed (three). Georgia’s lone touchdown given up this season was a pick-six.

At Hardaway, Mykel Williams has played both offensive and defensive line. He is a sack artist that shows explosive closing speed on defense. Williams has positional versatility along the defensive line, where he lines up at defensive tackle and defensive end. Williams does a solid job of getting his hands up in passing lanes to deflect passes. He should earn early playing time in college.

Williams committed to USC over Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, LSU, Penn State, Arizona State, Georgia Tech, Kentucky and Georgia.

The 6-foot-5, 255-pound Williams is ranked the No. 5 defensive lineman in the nation and No. 3 player in Georgia according to the 247Sports composite. Williams is expected to continue taking visits this fall.

Can Kirby Smart and company land a commitment from the talented in-state defensive lineman? We will provide updates as Mykel Williams re-evaluates his recruitment following USC’s coaching change.

4-star DB Emory Floyd commits to South Carolina

Four-star safety Emory Floyd has committed to South Carolina over Georgia and Auburn. Gamecocks are on a recruiting surge after a brutal class of 2021.

Four-star safety recruit Emory Floyd has committed to the South Carolina Gamecocks over schools like Georgia and Auburn. Floyd is a rising senior in high school at Hillgrove High School in Powder Springs, Georgia.

Th 6-foot-1, 165-pound safety is the latest player to commit to the Gamecocks. The class of 2022 product has excellent speed and runs track for his high school. Floyd has run 10.5 seconds in the 100-meter race, which would make him one of the fastest players on South Carolina’s roster.

The four-star safety had been on Kirby Smart’s radar since the University of Georgia offered Floyd back in Sept. 2020. Georgia was considered one of the top contenders for Floyd, but Auburn and South Carolina eventually became the leaders for the Hillgrove standout.

Emory Floyd announced his commitment to South Carolina via his Twitter account:

Emory Floyd ranks as the No. 24 safety in the class of 2022 and the No. 355 prospect overall.

The Gamecocks have been on a recruiting surge recently under new head coach Shane Beamer. South Carolina is looking to return to the level of talent they had in the early 2010s.

Overall, South Carolina has the No. 21-ranked recruiting class of 2022 in the country. The Gamecocks have 14 commitments including verbal commitments from three four-star prospects. Overall, Shane Beamer and company have nine commitments in the past three weeks.

Recruits are loving the Gamecock’s recently upgraded facilities. Still, it is not all good news for South Carolina. The Gamecocks had an extremely weak class of 2021, where they added the No. 80-rated recruiting class in the country.

Recruiting well in the offseason does not always translate as Tennessee fans know from last year. South Carolina must put together a solid season in order to keep some of their top commitments. This month is a step in the right direction for the Gamecocks.
