Elite quarterback prospect Ryan Montgomery, a 4-star recruit, has announced his commitment to the Georgia Bulldogs, choosing them over South Carolina and Florida. This decision comes after a series of commitments to the South Carolina Gamecocks' 2025 class, including 4-star wide receiver Brian Rowe, in-state safety Damarcus Leach, and 4-star EDGE Anthony Addison. Montgomery, initially considered a South Carolina lean, was swayed by the appealing quarterback situation at Georgia. With Montgomery no longer an option, the Gamecocks' plans for the 2025 quarterback position remain uncertain.
