Georgia Football missed an RB commitment from a big time target on Sunday. But there could be a silver lining in the future.

A big time running back made his recruiting decision on Sunday. Master Teague III, a very impressive player out of Tennessee decided to head to Columbus and play for Ohio State. This was a very surprising decision for a lot of people. The Georgia Football team was heavily involved in bringing in Teague for the 2018 class. He had been a major target for them and was number 2 on their board behind the nations #1 overall back Zamir White.

While he is not highly rated, Teague could end up being a stud on Saturdays. He recently clocked a 4.31 on a 40 yard dash. That is the definition of insane speed, especially for a guy yet to play his senior season in high school. This was someone Coach Dell McGee wanted badly and he’s not somebody who misses on his guys. Don’t let the rankings fool you, Ohio State got a big time player with this signing.

It always sucks to lose a top player, but there’s a big reason I think that Teague going to the Buckeyes could be good for Georgia. Zamir White.
