The Georgia Bulldogs landed one of the biggest prizes of the 2027 recruiting class.<\/p>\n

5-star running back Kemon Spell told Hayes Fawcett<\/a> of Rivals.com on Monday that he is committing to Georgia over offers from Penn State, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Miami. Spell is the No. 1 running back and No. 7 overall player in the 2027 class, per 247Sports’ composite<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Spell\u00a0took a visit<\/a>\u00a0to Georgia over the weekend, which seemed to push the Bulldogs over the top.<\/p>\n

A 5’9″, 205-pound speedster out of McKeesport High School in Pennsylvania, Spell racked up 1,755 rushing yards and 28 touchdowns despite missing multiple games with injuries. He also starred as a kickoff and punt returner.<\/p>\n

247Sports director of scouting Andrew Ivins described Spell as “a mix between a tank and a jackrabbit, which is an extremely difficult combination to tackle,” and went on to praise his ability to fight through contact.<\/p>\n

“Not a true burner, but can hit the gas when a crease opens up. Frequently thrashes forward at the first sign of contact and almost always seems to be falling forward. … Fits the bill of a hard-nosed football player given the physicality he also flashes on defense while doubling as a cornerback,” Ivins wrote. “Must avoid setbacks, but projects as a potential impact player for a College Football Playoff contender that can move the chains while facing stacked boxes.”<\/p>\n

Spell is the headliner of a\u00a02027 Georgia recruiting class<\/a>\u00a0that also includes 4-star cornerback Donte Wright and 4-star offensive tackle Kelsey Adams. His arrival should help the Bulldogs maintain their status as perennial national championship contenders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Georgia Bulldogs landed one of the biggest prizes of the 2027 recruiting class. 5-star running back Kemon…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":446015,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[399,398,396,397,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-446014","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ncaa-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-ncaa","10":"tag-ncaa-football","11":"tag-ncaafootball","12":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/446014","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=446014"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/446014\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/446015"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=446014"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=446014"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=446014"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
