Georgia football makes top-eight for nation’s No. 2 TE — Only SEC school on list

Georgia football is the only SEC school to make the top eight for the nation’s No. 2 tight end Brock Bowers from California.

On Sunday, Brock Bowers, a 4-star tight end in the class of 2021, released his top-eight schools.

Bowers hails from Napa, California and included only one SEC school in his most recent cut, The University of Georgia.

Bowers’ full list is as follows:

Cal, Georgia, Notre Dame, Oregon, Oregon State, Penn State, UCLA and Washington.

At 6-3 and 225 pounds, Bowers is rated as the nation’s No. 2 tight end and No. 52 prospect overall.

From 247Sports’ scouting report on Bowers:

Boasts elite level athleticism, clocking a 4.5 40 as a sophomore and a 40-inch vertical. Has the speed to burn a linebacker and separate from a defensive back. Tracks the ball well, uses good body control and his hands to make his catches and routinely finds the soft spot in a defense. Plus blocker who can seal off the edge but used best as a pass-catcher. Projects as multi-year Power 5 starter and projects as second round pick.

Georgia offered Bowers back in September of 2019. He and his family took a trip to Athens in January for an unofficial visit.
