David Gabriel Georges to Announce College Choice Live as NIL Offers Take Center Stage
A reported multi-year seven-figure NIL battle between Tennessee and Ohio State could decide where the five-star running back signs.
Overview
- Georges will make his televised commitment at 5:30 p.m. ET on Wednesday, July 22, on the CBS Sports College Football YouTube channel and CBS Sports HQ.
- The race is treated as a two-horse contest between Tennessee and Ohio State, with Ole Miss also on the table but viewed as a long shot.
- Multiple outlets report Tennessee’s package may be roughly $2 million per year on a multi-year deal while Ohio State’s reported offer is north of $1 million per year on a multi-year deal.
- In the run-up to the announcement Georges posted a haircut on July 12, was upgraded to a Rivals five-star on July 13, and has publicly said he remains 'torn' despite some reports that he already picked a school.
- Georges is an in-state Baylor School product whose commitment would reshape Tennessee’s 2027 class and influence how programs approach large, multi-year NIL deals for running backs with short NFL windows.
