UGA 5-Star Commit Broderick Jones Garnering Interest From Tennessee and Arkansas
By Jerry Trotta
It would appear that former Georgia offensive line coach Sam Pittman taking the head coaching position at Arkansas is already beginning to hit the Bulldogs where it hurts -- in the program's recruiting efforts.
5-star offensive line recruit Broderick Jones has been committed to Georgia since April of 2018, but did not sign during the early period, leaving the door open for potential poachers.
Well, Jones has meetings scheduled for both Arkansas and Tennessee in the coming weeks.
What's most telling here is the fact that Jones pushed back his meeting with the Volunteers in order to visit the Razorbacks first.
Arkansas are now slated to get the first chance to make an impression on the young offensive lineman. Jones is also scheduled to meet with Auburn and Georgia (again).
247Sports ever-reliable composite rankings tab Jones as the No. 2 OT recruit in the 2020 class, and the No.19 overall prospect.
He was expected to complete Georgia's imposing 2020 recruiting class, but today's report confirms that the door is more than open for him to sign with another program.
We'll certainly be keeping close tabs on Jones' all-important decision.
