The Georgia Bulldogs have previously been expected to land the nation's top recruit. That has changed in the eyes of one CFB recruiting expert
The Georgia Bulldogs have been previously projected to land a commitment from five-star pass rusher LaDamian Guyton, who is a member of the class of 2027. The rising junior is ranked as the No. 1 recruit in his class, per the 247Sports Composite.
Things may be changing in Guyton's recruitment. Rivals recently projected the elite edge rusher to commit to the Texas Tech Red Raiders. There's still a long way before Guyton has to make a college decision, but there's no doubt that he's a special talent. Guyton has an impressive combination of size and explosiveness.
The 6-foot-3, 225-pound edge rusher plays football for Benedictine Military School in Savannah, Georgia. He competes in football and track and field. Guyton is the No. 1 recruit in Georgia and the top edge rusher prospect in the nation.
Georgia still does have a unique pitch to offer the Savannah standout, which could help the Bulldogs if they can offer a name, image and likeness package that is competitive with Texas Tech. Guyton was previously high school teammates with five-star Georgia defensive end signee Elijah Griffin, so Georgia could lean on that relationship to try to pry Guyton away from Texas Tech.
