One of the nation’s top offensive tackles and Georgia commit E.J. Price (Lawrenceville, Ga.) reopened his recruitment on Thursday, opening the door for Auburn and Michigan who appear to be top landing spots for the massive 6-foot-6, 315-pound blocker.

Once the SEC’s top-rated incoming class, Georgia’s 11-player group for 2016 fell several spots to No. 9 — fourth in the SEC — according to the 247Sports Composite following the four-star’s decommitment.

Also on Thursday, coach Mark Richt announced that four-star 2015 signee and JUCO transfer offensive lineman DeVondre Seymour has decided to quit football.
