Four-star Georgia linebacker commit visiting Alabama

Four-star Buford standout, Georgia linebacker commit sets June official visit with Alabama football

Elite linebacker recruit Jadon Perlotte plans to take an official visit to Alabama on June 14. Alabama is looking to pry away Perlotte, who has been committed to the Georgia Bulldogs since Dec. 2022.

In the fall of 2023, the four-star linebacker was projected to flip his commitment to the Florida State Seminoles. However, Perlotte previously told On3, “I dropped Florida State, so I’m not even looking at them anymore.”

Perlotte plays football for Buford High School in Buford, Georgia. Buford is one of the premier high school football programs in the country. Perlotte played alongside Georgia freshman safety KJ Bolden during the 2023 football season at Buford. Perlotte plays both linebacker and safety and the high school level and has excellent versatility.

The four-star, who grew up a Georgia fan, is the No. 92 recruit nationally and the No. 13 recruit in Georgia in the class of 2025. The elite linebacker is the No. 12 player at his position. Georgia currently has eight commitments in the class of 2025 and the nation’s No. 11 recruiting class.

The 6-foot-3, 210-pound linebacker runs track and has committed to playing in the 2025 All-American Bowl. Perlotte’s brother, Jordan, plays college football for Wofford. Kirby Smart and Georgia signed the top recruiting class in the nation in the 2024 recruiting cycle.

Four-star Georgia linebacker commit no longer considering Florida State

Four-star linebacker Jadon Perlotte, who was projected to commit to Florida State several months ago is no longer considering the Seminoles.

Elite linebacker recruit Jadon Perlotte has been committed to the Georgia Bulldogs since December 2022. Several months ago, the four-star linebacker was projected to flip his commitment to the Florida State Seminoles. Now, Perlotte is no longer considering Florida State.

Perlotte told On3, “I dropped Florida State, so I’m not even looking at them anymore.”

Perlotte plays football for Buford High School in Buford, Georgia. Buford is one of the top high school football programs in the country. Perlotte played alongside elite Georgia signee KJ Bolden this past season at Buford.

The four-star, who grew up a Georgia fan, is the No. 54 recruit nationally and the No. 8 recruit in Georgia in the class of 2025. The elite linebacker is the sixth-ranked player at his position.

The 6-foot-3, 200-pound linebacker runs track and has committed to playing in the 2025 All-American Bowl. Perlotte’s brother, Jordan, plays college football for Wofford. Kirby Smart and Georgia have the top recruiting class in the nation in the 2024 recruiting cycle ahead of national signing day.

Four-star Georgia commit visits Auburn, DJ Durkin on Sunday

Jadon Perlotte’s relationship with new defensive coordinator DJ Durkin may help the Tigers chances to flip from rival Georgia.

Auburn has been high on the radar of four-star linebacker [autotag]Jadon Perlotte[/autotag] for quite some time. Their stock has risen now that they have tabbed [autotag]DJ Durkin[/autotag] as the new defensive coordinator.

Perlotte, a Georgia pledge since December of 2022, visited Auburn on Sunday for the seventh time since the 2022 football season. One of the main reasons for his visit was to catch up with Durkin, a coach who recruited him heavily during his days at Texas A&M.

Perlotte tells Caleb Jones of Rivals that Durkin sees Perlotte as a player who can be the “quarterback of the defense.” He also says that his experience as a coach intrigues him.

“(Durkin) bringing his knowledge down here is just a big deal for me,” Perlotte said in an interview with Rivals. “We went through a lot of film. He knows what he’s talking about. His backers are very versatile and the next level is the league, that’s where I wanna be at.”

Georgia is the frontrunner at this time, but Auburn and Florida State remain high in the chase. His high school teammate at Buford, [autotag]KJ Bolden[/autotag], signed with Georgia during the early signing period, which is important due to a quote published by Sports Illustrated last August which he stated that he and Bolden were a “package deal.”

“I’ve got to play with him,” Perlotte said in August. “Nobody has scored, pass-wise, on our side 1-2 during our whole high school careers. I’ve got to play with KJ (Bolden). Our package is just different.”

Perlotte is the No. 3 linebacker for the 2025 cycle and is the No. 25 overall player for the recruiting class. Perlotte says that he plans to visit Auburn more this year, including several times during the spring practice period.

Georgia-based four-star LB will be at the Florida-Florida State game

Georgia-based four-star line backer will be at the Florida-Florida State game

The Florida Gators have been hot on the recruiting trail as of late and head coach Billy Napier doesn’t look like he intends to slow down anytime soon.

A Georgia-based high school linebacker talked to Gators Online recently and announced that he’ll be attending the in-state rivalry battle between the Florida Gators and Florida State Seminoles.

Class of 2025 four-star [autotag]Jadon Perlotte[/autotag] is a “hard-commit” to the Georgia Bulldogs, but it appears the Seminoles are in contact with the Buford, Georgia, native and trying to flip the young prospect before next season.

With any extra luck, Napier can also swoop into the conversation to pull off a heist for his 2025 class of recruits.

It will be Perlotte’s second visit to Gainesville this year, his last one happened in mid-April. The 2025 prospect toured the new Heavener football facility and liked what he had to see.

Perlotte talked to Gators Online after his spring visit.

“I liked the new facility,” Perlotte said. “The last time I was there, they were building the facility and walking through with hard hats. When we walked through housing, it looked like just how they said it was going to look like. It’s amazing; it was something I’ve never seen before.”

The four-star also had lengthy conversations with some members of the UF coaching staff, and sometimes still talks to linebackers coach Jay Bateman.

“(The visit) went really good. I came down with my boys,” Perlotte said. “We saw the facilities and walked around. Coach Bateman, the linebackers coach, showed a lot of love. He keeps in touch with me a lot. We always talk to each other. He helped coach my head coach, so we kind of have ties going back. He’s been up there to watch me a couple of times as well.”

Perlotte is a 6-foot-3-inch, 200-pound linebacker for Buford High School, ranking at No. 56 overall and is No. 10 at his position. The 247Sports crystal ball predicts Perlotte flipping to FSU come next year.

 

Report: Ohio State trying to flip Georgia 2025 linebacker commit

The Buckeyes aren’t giving up on this linebacker #GoBucks

Recruiting is cutthroat, even when you are a school like [autotag]Ohio State football[/autotag] or Georgia.

Not only are teams trying to flip 2024 prospects, but committed 2025 players are subject to the same treatment. Bulldog linebacker commit, [autotag]Jadon Perlotte[/autotag], has told On3’s Chad Simmons that he is still hearing from multiple schools, one of them being Ohio State.

Perlotte committed to Georgia this past December, but the 6-foot, 3-inch, 200-pound ‘backer doesn’t seem to be too firm on his pledge. He’s ranked as the No. 7 prospect at his position and the 46th overall player in the country according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings.

As they say, it’s not over until the recruit signs, and it looks like Ohio State along with other schools will take Perlotte to the limit.

Can Auburn flip another Georgia commit in Jadon Perlotte?

Perlotte says that Auburn is “going to be hard to beat” after his recent visit to the Plains.

Last week, Auburn was able to change the tune of five-star linebacker [autotag]Demarcus Riddick[/autotag]. Riddick, one of the top players of the 2024 cycle, elected to stay home by flipping his commitment from Georgia to Auburn.

After Big Cat Weekend, it seems as if [autotag]Hugh Freeze[/autotag] and his staff are working to change the mind of another Georgia pledge.

[autotag]Jadon Perlotte[/autotag], a 2025 four-star linebacker from Buford, Georgia, paid a surprise visit to the Plains for Big Cat Weekend. He tells Bryan Matthews of Auburn Rivals that he enjoyed his visit, and is even considering a flip to Auburn.

“Surprise coming soon, around August time,” Perlotte tells Matthews.

He visited Auburn for A-Day but says that his most recent visit was different. He got a chance to visit the newly built Woltosz Football Performance Center and was blown away.

“Probably just the new facilities. It’s crazy. I ain’t ever seen anything like this,” Perlotte said. “And the love that the coaches showed. They’ve been watching me since my ninth-grade year and they’ve just kept being hard after me.”

The news of his possible flip is important in itself but is worth noting that Perlotte attends the same high school as 2024 target KJ Bolden. Bolden is set to announce his commitment this weekend. If that works in Auburn’s favor, Bolden may try to get Perlotte to join him. However, he is also teammates with Georgia quarterback pledge Dylan Raiola. So it will be interesting to see how it turns out.

Perlotte is the No. 10 linebacker for the 2025 class and is the No. 9 prospect from Georgia according to 247Sports.

These two 5-star LB recruits stopping in at the Swamp on Saturday

These two 5-star linebackers are on campus Saturday to check out what the Gators have got going for them.

Florida football’s annual Orange and Blue game is in the rearview mirror but Billy Napier and his staff’s efforts on the recruiting front never stop. On Saturday following the intrasquad scrimmage that represents the end of spring practice, the Gators got a pair of five-star 2025 linebacker recruits on campus for a gander at what the Swamp has to offer them.

The first big name on the board is [autotag]Jadon Perlotte[/autotag] out of Buford (Georgia) who committed to the Georgia Bulldogs back in December. The 6-foot-3-inch-200-pound defender appears to still be weighing his options elsewhere and could give the Gators a chance to flip a top recruit from their biggest rivals.

Perlotte is rated at five stars and ranked No. 22 overall and No. 2 at his position nationally according to the 247Sports composite while the On3 industry ranking has him at four stars and ranked at Nos. 50 and 5, respectively.

Secondly, there is [autotag]Noah Mikhail[/autotag] out of Laverne (California) Bonita, who received a scholarship offer from Florida last week. The 6-foot-2-inch, 210-pound linebacker makes his first-ever stop in Gainesville on Saturday.

Mikhail is rated at five stars and ranked No. 28 overall and No. 3 at his position nationally according to the 247Sports composite while the On3 industry ranking has him at four stars and ranked at Nos. 48 and 4, respectively. On3’s RPM gives the USC Trojans a 31.7% chance of signing him, with the Texas A&M Aggies, Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Washington Huskies trailing behind at 14.2%, 12.2% and 5.3%, respectively.

Florida football looks to flip 5-star 2025 LB target from Georgia with visit

Can the Gators snag a top-notch commit from their most fierce rivals? A Gainesville visit is a great first step.

The recruiting trail has been a busy one for Billy Napier and the Florida football program with the dead period far back in the rearview mirror along with the annual intrasquad game coming up next week. While a good deal of attention is being paid to the 2024 recruiting cycle, the staff also have theirs eyes on the future as well.

One member of the 2025 class Napier and Co. are focused on is five-star linebacker [autotag]Jadon Perlotte[/autotag] out of Buford (Georgia) who is currently committed to their fierce rivals, the Georiga Bulldogs. The 6-foot-3-inch, 200-pound middle defender recently told Gators Online that he plans to be in Gainesville this weekend on Saturday, April 8.

“Their coaches are unbelievable. They care a lot about their players,” he remarked last summer after collecting an offer. “It’s also the culture and tradition, so they do things differently down there compared to other schools. That’s why I really needed to get to a game down there.”

The high school sophomore also holds offers from the Florida State Seminoles, Alabama Crimson Tide, LSU Tigers, Ohio State Buckeyes, Texas A&M Aggies, Texas Longhorns, Oregon Ducks, Michigan Wolverines and Tennessee Volunteers — among many others — and recently paid a visit with FSU.

Perlotte is rated at five stars, ranked No. 22 overall and No. 2 at his position nationally according to the 247Sports composite while the On3 industry ranking rates him at four stars and ranks him at Nos. 50 and 5, respectively.
