Elite UCLA transfer wide receiver visiting Georgia

The Georgia Bulldogs been on the hunt for wide receivers in the transfer portal window, which is set to close on Dec. 28. The Bulldogs may not be in the running for the top receiver transfer anymore, but they could be getting a visit from another one this week.

According to Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports, there is growing belief that top wide receiver J. Michael Sturdivant, who entered the transfer portal from UCLA on Dec. 10, will end up visiting Georgia this week. There’s no word on if the visit is official or unofficial. Sturdivant has one year left of eligibility.

The former four-star recruit transferred to UCLA from California in 2023. In three seasons, Sturdivant has 123 career receptions for 1,667 yards and 13 touchdowns.

According to Zenitz, some NFL scouts believe Sturdivant has NFL potential. He also visited Florida during the week.

Georgia is in need of wide receivers, since seniors Arian Smith, Dominic Lovett and Colbie Young could leave in the offseason. Georgia landed some talented incoming receiver recruits, but the Bulldogs could be better off getting proven pass-catching talent on the transfer portal.
