Georgia adds another great RB recruit with Mater Dei’s Nate Frazier

they have an especially rich history with great running backs.

These days Georgia is recruiting all the best prospects for every position, including the top quarterback in this class. However, they have an especially rich history with great running backs. This past weekend the Bulldogs added yet another potential star to the future of their backfield.

Here’s how Mater Dei (Calif.) four-star running back Nate Frazier announced his commitment to Georgia – echoing head football coach Kirby Smart’s Go Dawgs message on Twitter.

Frazier (5-foot-11, 208 pounds) had offers from 23 other schools, including Alabama, Oregon, Auburn, Cal, Colorado, Miami, Penn State and USC.

Asked why he picked the Bulldogs, Frazier made it clear he’s aware of their awesome tradition at running back. Here’s what he told Chad Simmons of On3 about his commitment.

“If you look at the history of Georgia with their two backfield players like Sony Michel, Todd Gurley, Nick Chubb and D’Andre Swift, all of those guys were around playing with each other at the same time. They all made it to the NFL so if you look at that closely and when they played, if you’re a good player and you go to Georgia, you’re going to play…”

Going by the 247Sports composite rankings, Frazier is No. 4 among running backs in his class, also No. 4 overall in the state of Georgia and No. 51 nationally. However, both On3 and Rivals have him ranked first at his position.

As for the big picture, Georgia remains No. 1 in the nation by a wide margin in the 2024 recruiting rankings.

2024 5-star RB Nate Frazier set to announce his commitment on Sunday, Aug. 6

2024 5-star running back and Aggie recruiting target Nate Frazier will announce his commitment on Sunday, Aug. 6

Texas A&M 2024 recruiting target, five-star running back Nathaniel “Nate” Frazier, is set to announce his commitment Live on On3’s YouTube Channel On Aug. 6 at 3:00 p.m. ET.

Frazier, who released his Top 4 program list last month, will choose between Georiga, Oregon, Alabama, and Texas A&M, as the Bulldogs remain a favorite to land the talented back, who is set to enter his senior season at Mater Dei (CA).

According to On3, Frazier is currently positioned as the 15th-ranked player in the 2024 cycle, the No.1-ranked running back, and the No.2-ranked player in California, receiving his only five-star designation from the recruiting outlet.

During his 2022 junior season at Mater Dei (CA), Frazier ran for 693 yards and eight touchdowns in 13 games, with two 100-yard outings and a solid 11.4-yard per rush average. Frazier’s status with the Aggies ahead of Sunday’s announcement is somewhat unknown. Still, as we’ve seen throughout the summer regarding several recruiting predictions, nothing is set in stone until the announcement is made.

With vision, footwork, and incredible speed and agility in the open field, Frazier is as talented as they come in the backfield, and after acquiring 2023 five-star running back Reuben Owens, who’s already competing for the starting job this coming season, is undoubtedly an enticing pitch for Frazier from now on.

Mater Dei 5-star RB Nate Frazier names his top 8 schools

Frazier has gotten offers from 24 different programs, but he seems to be closing in on a decision.

One of the best running backs in the 2024 recruiting cycle is Nate Frazier from Mater Dei (Calif.).

So far, Frazier has gotten offers from 24 different programs, but he seems to be closing in on a decision for his college team. Yesterday, he told Hayes Fawcett at On3 that his final eight schools are Alabama, Georgia, Oregon, Texas A&M, Miami, Auburn, Nebraska, and Tennessee.

As a Junior, Frazier posted 791 Yards on 61 carries (11.4 per attempt) and scored nine touchdowns.

Here’s a look at the kind of top-tier athleticism he possesses out of the backfield, with a burst of speed through to the second level that doesn’t seem real.

Frazier (5-foot-11, 208 pounds) is ranked No. 4 at his position, No. 4 in the state of California and No. 51 nationally going by the 247Sports composite.

So, where will he go?

According to On3’s prediction model, there’s no clear favorite. Oregon has the best chance at 29.7%, followed by Alabama (25.9%), then USC (11.4%) and Georgia (9.5%). 247Sports says Texas A&M is also a contender.

Auburn among top group for elite running back Nate Frazier

Auburn is looking to add a second running back to its 2024 recruiting class.

Auburn has already landed one top running back in [autotag]J’Marrion Burnette[/autotag] but the Tigers are not done, with running backs coach [autotag]Cadillac Williams[/autotag] looking to add two running backs in the 2024 cycle. On Tuesday they got some good news as they made the top group for one of the best in the country.

[autotag]Nate Frazier[/autotag], a four-star prospect, included the Tigers in his top eight schools. They are battling Alabama, Georgia, Texas A&M, Oregon, Nebraska, Miami and Tennessee for the Santa Anna, California, product.

While the Tigers made the cut, they have some work ahead of them to land the 5-foot-11, 208-pounder, as he has yet to visit the Plains. He has already officially visited Oregon and Alabama and taken several trips to Georgia.

He is the No. 51 overall player and No. 4 running back in the 247Sports Composite ranking. He is also the No. 4 player from California.

Auburn currently has 10 commits in the 2024 recruiting cycle and Frazier would become the highest-ranked one if they can reel him in.

The Tigers have not landed multiple running backs in one class since 2019 when they added [autotag]Mark-Anthony Richards[/autotag] and [autotag]D.J. Williams[/autotag].
