5-star WR, Auburn commit George Pickens announces he will sign with Georgia
Published:
Georgia just pulled off the biggest stunner to date of National Signing Day as five-star Auburn commit George Pickens announced he will attend Georgia over Auburn, LSU and Tennessee. Pickens had been committed to Auburn since 2017.
Pickens announced his decision during a signing ceremony on Wednesday morning.
A native of Hoover, Ala., Pickens is rated as the No. 4 receiver in the nation and a top 25 overall recruit for 2019 by 247Sports Composite Rankings. He was a selection in the 2019 Under Armour All-American Game and by all accounts, was one of the most outstanding prospects from the event. He was also a member of the 2019 Alabama-Mississippi All-Star Game and the 2019 Polynesian Bowl.
