Georgia landed commitment from elite Louisiana prospect Monday
The state of Georgia boasts the most players on SEC rosters for 2015, but the Bulldogs dipped down into the state of Louisiana Monday for their newest commitment.
Four-star 2017 wide receiver Devonta Smith pulled the trigger for UGA.
The 6-1, 155-pound prospect is from Amite, Louisiana, and he’s ranked as the country’s No. 17 overall receiver and the state’s No. 8 overall prospect for the 2017 recruiting class, according to 247Sports’ Composite Rankings.
Smith became Georgia’s third commitment for the class of 2017.
“Getting the news that I earned an offer from Georgia was great, because I know at Georgia I will be well taken care of and coaches that will look out for my best interests,” Smith told 247Sports. “Athens is a nice place. The campus is beautiful.”
