Mitchell spent 2 years with the Bulldogs and earned a reputation as a clutch playmaker. He scored 1 touchdown in all 4 of Georgia’s College Football Playoff contests while he was with the program.
However, Mitchell was never able to carve out a consistent role in the offense. He also missed much of the 2022 season due to an ankle injury. He leaves Georgia with 38 catches for 588 yards and 7 touchdowns in his career across 2 seasons.
Mitchell will be much closer to home in Austin, Texas. He’s a Lone Star State native, having attended Cane Ridge High School in Missouri City, Texas.
Mitchell was a 4-star prospect in the class of 2021. He will have 2 years of eligibility remaining with the Longhorns.
