Georgia football offers 4-star dual threat QB

The Georgia Bulldogs have offered a scholarship to Lowndes High School quarterback Jacurri Brown.

The Georgia Bulldogs have offered a scholarship to quarterback Jacurri Brown. Brown is a dual threat quarterback, who is a talented member of the class of 2022.

Brown, a four-star recruit, plays high school football for Lowndes in Valdosta, Georgia. He’s already received recruiting interest from Tennessee, Florida, Nebraska, Miami, and more.

Now, Georgia is the latest school to offer Jacurri Brown, who is currently a junior in high school. Brown still needs to polish some of his passing skills before he’d be ready to start in the SEC.

Brown is the latest example of Kirby Smart and UGA’s willingness to accept dual threat quarterbacks into their offense. Class of 2021 Georgia football quarterback commitment Brock Vandagriff is a great passer, and he also offers dual threat capabilities.

Former Georgia Bulldog star Josh Harvey-Clemons went to Lowndes before coming to Athens. Will Brown be the latest Lowndes product to come to Georgia?

Lowndes is one of the top high school programs in the state of Georgia.

Jacurri Brown shared his excitement at adding an offer from UGA to his list of scholarship offers:

Former Colquitt County (Moultrie, Ga) High School football coach Rush Propst is taking over as the new head coach of the Valdosta (GA) High School Wildcats, according to the Valdosta High Twitter account.

During Tuesday’s Valdosta Board of Education meeting, the board voted 5 to 4 to bring Propst to Valdosta.

While at Alabama’s Hoover High, he was featured in the MTV series “Two-A-Days.” Propst led Hoover to multiple state championships but an extramarital affair and recruiting allegations ended his time at Hoover.

In 2007, he moved to Colquitt and compiled a 119-35 record with two state titles. Prospt was fired last March after allegations of the misuse of school funds for a hotel and concerns about being verbally abusive to an athlete.

Valdosta is home to the winningest high school football program in the country with a record 911 wins. The Wildcats have won six national championships, 24 state championships, and 42 regional championships. Former Georgia lettermen Buck Belue, John Lastinger, Brice Hunter, Malcolm Mitchell, Todd Peterson, Jay Rome and James Eunice all graduated from Valdosta.

Valdosta plays at Colquitt County September 11 of the upcoming season.
