Georgia football DB announces transfer destination

Georgia Bulldogs cornerback Julian Humphrey announces his transfer destination

Georgia Bulldogs defensive back Julian Humphrey committed to the Texas A&M Aggies. Humphrey announced his plan to enter the transfer portal ahead of the SEC championship game.

Humphrey started several games for Georgia this fall and is ranked as the third-best cornerback in the portal, per 247Sports. Humphrey is the No. 33 overall prospect in the transfer portal.

Humphrey committed to Texas A&M over Texas, Miami, Oregon and Alabama. Humphrey, who is a former four-star recruit out of high school, should be expected to compete for a starting role in the Aggies’ secondary.

Humphrey recorded 10 tackles and four pass deflections during the 2024 college football season. The 6-foot, 190-pound defensive back received less playing time as Georgia’s season progressed. The Bulldogs started Daniel Harris in Humphrey’s place on the outside opposite of Daylen Everette.

Georgia’s No. 2 cornerback has been picked on frequently this season whether Daniel Harris or Julian Humphrey. Humphrey’s departure is a significant loss for Georgia’s secondary depth. Georgia freshman Ellis Robinson is expected to replace Humphrey as part of UGA’s defensive backs rotation.

SEC standings after battle of undefeated teams, crazy Week 9

A clear favorite has emerged atop the SEC standings after earning a massive win over LSU in Week 9

The Texas A&M Aggies are the SEC’s big winner from Week 9. Texas A&M used a 31-point second half to top the LSU Tigers in a battle of undefeated SEC teams (in conference play only). Texas A&M is in the driver’s seat to advance to the SEC championship.

The Aggies have a relatively easy path to Atlanta with remaining conference games at South Carolina, at Auburn and versus Texas. However, Texas A&M may need to win out to ensure a berth in the SEC title game.

The Alabama Crimson Tide dominated the Missouri Tigers, 34-0, to squash Missouri’s College Football Playoff hopes. The Crimson Tide remain alive in the SEC but will need some help to get back in the SEC title picture.

Texas picked up a 27-24 win at Vanderbilt to keep its SEC championship hopes strong. Ole Miss defeated Oklahoma, 26-14, in a gritty win. Arkansas piled the points on Mississippi State in 58-25 win. Auburn earned a 24-10 road win to get their first conference win of the season.

The Georgia Bulldogs had a bye in Week 9 ahead of their clash with the Florida Gators next week. Florida also had a bye along with South Carolina and Tennessee.

4-star flips from Georgia to SEC rival

The Georgia Bulldogs lost a key class of 2025 class commitment to an SEC rival.

The Georgia Bulldogs received negative news on the recruiting front on Saturday morning. Four-star safety Rashad Johnson announced his decision to flip from the Bulldogs to the Texas A&M Aggies, giving Mike Elko a major 2025 recruiting win. Johnson had been committed to Georgia since June 14.

Johnson is listed at 6 feet, 2 inches and 200 pounds. He is the 24th-ranked safety in the nation and the 33rd overall player in the state of Florida. He plays at South Sumter High School, where he recorded 59 tackles, seven pass breakups and an interception a season ago. He caught nine passes for 209 yards and three touchdowns on the offensive side as a receiver. He competes in track and field in addition to football.

With Johnson’s commitment, Texas A&M has 21 commits and has risen to the No. 8 ranking on the 2025 recruiting composite from 247Sports. This places the Aggies just ahead of Oklahoma and just behind their chief rival, the Texas Longhorns.

The Bulldogs are down to 21 commits for the 2025 class and are ranked fourth in the nation behind Ohio State, Alabama and LSU. Four-star Jaylan Morgan is the lone true safety pledge in the class, though Todd Robinson is a four-star athlete who is projected by some to play the position for the Bulldogs.
