The Georgia Bulldogs offered a scholarship to class of 2024 wide receiver Amari Jefferson back in July of 2022.
Out of the Baylor School in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Jefferson ranks as the nation’s No. 341 overall player, No. 32 ranked athlete and as the No. 5 player in the state of Tennessee.
Jefferson tweeted on Tuesday that his top-twelve schools include Georgia, Alabama, Miami, Tennessee, South Carolina, Clemson, Florida State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Georgia Tech, Colorado, and Penn State.
The 6-foot-1, 195 pound prospect explained what he likes about Georgia when talking to Rivals.com.
“The first school to really recruit me hard and make me a priority,” Jefferson told Rivals. “They have been excellent to me. Kirby (Smart) watching my game on a Friday night before his team played Auburn on Saturday really stood out to me.”
Jefferson took a recent visit to Athens, per his Twitter account:
