SHOCKING: Georgia loses safety commit, works to replace him

Georgia won handily in their season’s opening home Saturday. It also included some unfavorable recruiting-related news.

Rashad Johnson, a safety commit at Georgia, switched his pledge from Georgia to Texas A&M just before kickoff in the home opener. With Johnson, the buzz had begun to build during the course of the preceding week. The previous week, he had visited College Station for A&M’s season opener, and after Johnson had selected Georgia over A&M and Penn State in the summer, Mike Elko’s staff had begun to gain momentum.

The Bulldogs were not surprised by this setback, despite the fact that it appeared as such.

It at last made the eagerly anticipated offer to Rasean Dinkins, a Georgia Tech defensive backs commit. Dinkins has made several trips to Georgia, notably during the springtime scavenger quest. Isaiah Gibson, a 5-star recruit to Georgia, and he are high school teammates. Although it’s not a given that Dinkins will go to Georgia, the Bulldogs are attempting to make him the Johnson stand-in.

It appears that there were issues accessing detailed articles about Georgia losing a safety commit. However, it’s known that Georgia recently lost a high-profile safety recruit from their 2025 class, which is a setback as the Bulldogs look to maintain their strong recruiting efforts. When a key defensive player decommits, Georgia typically pivots quickly, targeting other prospects to fill the gap, whether through new offers or ramping up existing recruitment efforts.
