Add one more name to Georgia’s impressive recruiting haul on the first day of the early signing period.
The Bulldogs flipped Nadab Joseph, a 4-star defensive back from Miami, who committed to Alabama on Dec. 5, according to 247 Sports. He held 22 offers and was ranked the No. 18 cornerback in the country.
The late announcement, which came after 6 p.m. on Wednesday, was just the latest event in the recruitment of Joseph. Before he committed to Alabama, he was a one-time LSU commitment.
Rivals reported that Joseph was expected to sign with Alabama until Wednesday morning when he decided to wait to sign a letter of intent with the Crimson Tide or any program for that matter. The second change of heart came at roughly 6:15 pm, when his letter of intent was faxed to the Georgia staff.
