Three-star running back recruit Brandon Hood has signed with the Georgia Bulldogs as a preferred walk-on. Hood is the latest three-star recruit to sign with Georgia as a walk-on despite having offers to play elsewhere.
Brandon Hood plays high school football for Eagles Landing Christian Academy in McDonough, Georgia. Hood is ranked as the No. 817 recruit in the country, the No. 63 running back, and the No. 92 player in Georgia.
The three-star running back also plays in the slot as a receiver some. Hood tore his ACL in the fall of 2022 and worked his way back. He also runs track and has good speed.
What is Georgia getting in three-star running back Brandon Hood?
