Georgia football has somehow only played three home games this season. Thankfully that will change in a hurry as the Bulldogs final three games this season will all be at home in Sanford Stadium.

One of the reasons why not having many home games is tough is because there are that many less opportunities to host recruits on visits. But now that Georgia has multiple home games coming up, they are now having many of the top recruits in the country make the trip to Athens to take in a game in person.

This includes one player currently committed to Florida who will be visiting Georgia soon.

3-star DL Jeremiah McCloud

Jeremiah McCloud is a three-star defensive lineman who has been committed to Florida since May of this year. According to the 247sports composite rankings, McCloud is the No. 444 overall player in the country. He also is the No. 44 defensive lineman and No. 57 player from Georgia.

McCloud will reportedly be visiting Georgia for their game against UMass on Nov. 23, according to his 247Sports profile.

Kirby Smart and his staff have been hard at work for awhile now attempting to flip McCloud from the Gators, and this news just confirms the likelihood of Georgia to pull off this flip. Back on Oct. 31, two crystal ball predictions were logged in favor of Georgia to flip McCloud from Florida. On3 has also predicted McCloud to Georgia as well. So at this point it may just be a matter of time until McCloud makes it official and commits to UGA.

It is unlikely McCloud makes it official before his visit next weekend, but there is a very high chance he flips his committment to Georgia while on this upcoming visit. Hopefully that is exactly what Smart and his staff are able to pull off, because flipping any recruit is always fun, but flipping a recruit from a rival like Florida is even better.
