Georgia, Florida among WR Daquayvious Sorey’s top schools

The Georgia Bulldogs and Florida Gators made Graceville wide receiver Daquayvious Sorey’s top ten.

Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs recently offered a scholarship to wide receiver Daquayvious Sorey. Sorey is a member of the class of 2023 and plays at Graceville High School in Graceville, Florida. Graceville is in the panhandle of Florida and is very close to the border of Georgia and Florida.

Athens wouldn’t be a far trip for Sorey or his talented cousin Xavian Sorey. Xavian, a four-star 2021 linebacker, also put Georgia among his top schools. The duo would like to play together again in college.

Sorey has received recruiting interest so far from Alabama, Florida State, Auburn,ย  Florida, Tennessee and more. Sorey was excited to receive his offer from UGA, but is entertaining his options at this point. That being said, Sorey released his top ten schools via Twitter:

Florida, Georgia, Florida State, Tennessee, Texas A&M, Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Kentucky, and Southern Mississippi make up Sorey’s first top ten. He’ll have plenty of time to update it as his recruitment changes. For now, it is quite SEC heavy and focuses on schools with close proximity to Graceville, Florida.

Sorey has visited Dan Mullen and the Florida Gators, who are close to his hometown:

Sorey, who is a freshman, will have an abundance of time to decide his recruiting future. Will it be in Athens? Gainesville? Tuscaloosa?

Sorey started for varsity as an eighth grader. He shows impressive ability to track the ball in his highlights. He has plenty of time to improve his game. He’s 6 feet tall and weighs 170 pounds.

It’ll be intriguing to see how recruitment for Sorey plays out, since there is an abundance of time for teams to add their names to the mix. Any freshman receiving so much early interest from major programs is bound to end up as a four- or five-star recruit.
