Georgia’s remaining 2025 recruiting targets and upcoming commitment dates

SEC Media Days are the official sign that college football is almost back. Georgia has one of the toughest schedules in the country, but with Kirby Smart and Carson Beck, the Bulldogs are the favorites to win it all, and with good reason. However, Smart isn’t quite done building his roster for the 2025 season and beyond. 

Recruiting has cooled off, Georgia has only landed five recruits in July with four-star interior offensive lineman Cortez Smith the latest addition to the now 22-player 2025 class. Smart’s group is ranked No. 3 in the country and with three five-stars planning to head for Athens next year, his work is almost done, though there should be much emphasis on the word almost. 

The recruiting fire may cool, but it’s never extinguished, and Georgia still has a few priority targets in the 2025 recruiting class who could round out the elite talent pool that Smart has assembled. 

Priority targets: 

• Justus Terry, 5-star DL, 6’5” 275 lbs, Manchester, GA*
• Elijiah Griffin, 5-star DL, 6’5” 285 lbs, Savannah, GA*
