The Georgia Bulldogs have offered a scholarship to defensive back Jahlil Hurley very early in the recruiting process. Hurley is a member of the class of 2023, so he’s only a sophomore in high school. Kirby Smart and the University of Georgia aren’t afraid to offer players who are quite young.

That hasn’t stopped Hurley from getting scholarship offers from all around the country. Elite college programs like FSU, Auburn, Florida, and South Carolina have already offered the standout cornerback.

Hurley stars for Florence High School in Florence, Alabama. He possesses rare length at the cornerback position at six-foot-three. Based on early interest from some of college football’s top programs, Hurley will be a three or four-star recruit one day.
