UGA Recruiting: Looking Ahead – 2024 Running Backs, Who Do We Want?
The University of Georgia is RB-U. That’s the statement. That’s it. With the storied history of running backs that came through UGA, one would think that the Dawgs could pull any running back in the country that they want. That simply has not been the case in 2023. Alabama also has a big history of star running backs, so it isn’t s surprise when a player chooses the Crimson Tide. Let’s be honest, they’re in a dynasty right now, so we shouldn’t be shocked when someone like five star running back Richard Young chooses to play for Nick Saban. The problem comes when a UGA legacy running back like Justice Haynes also chooses the Crimson Tide in the same year.
Which makes the 2024 class all the more important. According to the 247sports composite rankings, only two of the top 20 running backs in the 2024 class are committed. Neither of those two have been targeted by Georgia. The top ranked back in the nation is Jerrick Gibson, who is also a top UGA target.
