5-star Georgia commit threw a curveball that even Kirby Smart didn't see coming

Georgia received their worst recruiting news of the year just a few days ago. Five-star corner Donte Wright has been committed to Georgia for eight months now, but the last few months have been a rollercoaster that no one wants to be on.

That consisted of countless reports indicating he had interest in many other schools. In fact, he was even scheduling visits to other schools while helping recruit other players to Georgia.

Absolutely no one knew what was going on, that is until a prediction was logged for him to flip his commitment to Oregon. This story however does not end there.

5-star Donte Wright toys with Georgia's emotions

Just one day after the prediction was made for Wright to flip his commitment to Oregon, he spoke out and said that he is "still fully committed to Georgia." On paper this seems like he is denying that this new prediction is true and that he is sticking with Georgia, but that may not be the case.

What Wright said in the above post is a fact. He is still committed to Georgia. But has he been acting like a commit? Not really. So even though he is technically committed to Georgia right now it feels like it is just a matter of time until he officially flips to Oregon. And unfortuantely that has remained the case even after this statement.

Kirby Smart is going to have to work some magic if he is going to hold onto Wright's commitment. And if that means that he needs to up his NIL offer then that is what he needs to do. Wright is too good of a player to lose as he is someone that can completely change the outlook of Georgia's program.

So whatever Smart needs to do to win this recruitment he needs to do as soon as possible because he is someone they can't afford to lose.
