5-star 2019 WR Jadon Haselwood, the No. 1 receiver in his class, has been committed to Georgia since March of 2017, but that doesn’t mean he’s stopped hearing from other schools.
Haselwood said four-teams — Auburn, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Florida State — are still recruiting him the hardest.
However, he recently told AL.com that he is still firmly committed to Georgia, even though he is listening to the other schools’ best pitches:
“That’s still my school,” he said. “I’m not going to change on them yet, if I do. Right now, everything is all solid.”
Auburn has been targeting the nation’s No. 6 overall player and No. 1 overall 2019 recruit from Georgia (per the 247Sports composite) particularly hard, and Haselwood detailed their pitch about becoming Auburn’s best NFL receiver:
“Basically, they tell me they haven’t really that that guy who came out of Auburn,” Haselwood said at The Opening Finals in Frisco, Texas. “Georgia has A.J. Green and Clemson has D-Hop (DeAndre Hopkins). Basically, (Auburn says) I could be that guy to come out of Auburn.”
For now, though, Haselwood remains committed to the Bulldogs, but that could certainly change. Coach Kirby Smart and his staff will have to continue to work hard to keep the Georgia native at home.
