Four-star QB Jared Curtis backs off commitment to Georgia

One of the top quarterbacks in the 2026 recruiting cycle out of Tennessee has reopened his recruitment.

Jared Curtis, the No. 3-ranked QB in the Rivals250 in next year’s class, decommtted from Georgia on Thursday evening. The decision comes just seven months removed from his verbal declaration to the Dawgs this spring.

South Carolina got Curtis, the No. 13-ranked prospect overall in the Rivals250, on campus earlier this fall. USC also hosted the four-star quarterback from Nashville (Tenn.) Christian School for the first time in June. Curtis has been a frequent visitor in Athens since his commitment, including a handful of trips for games between the hedges over the past month.

Alabama and Ohio State were two other contenders squarely in the mix for the elite passer before his commitment to Georgia.
