Overview
- Multiple recruiting outlets report that Georges, a consensus five-star running back, has narrowed his finalists to Ole Miss, Ohio State and Tennessee and set a public announcement for July 22.
- On Monday, several insiders said Georges may have already informed programs of his choice, though no public commitment has been made and verbal decisions can still change.
- Reporting cites an expected multi-year NIL package in the roughly $1 million range as a central factor in the recruitment and a likely driver of intense program engagement.
- Tennessee has deployed its full staff and highlighted strength coach Derek Owings in the recruitment, while Rivals insiders currently tilt toward Ohio State in public predictions.
- Georges’ choice would materially affect Tennessee’s 2027 class ranking and signal how high-profile running backs are being negotiated in the current NIL era.
