Nation’s No. 1 overall player Dylan Raiola commits to Georgia

The Georgia Bulldogs received some incredible news on Monday when the nation’s No. 1 overall recruit committed to the University of Georgia.

Quarterback Dylan Raiola, who is a member of the class of 2024, tweeted the news on Monday.

“Athens, Ga is home!!! I’m a Dawg!! Go Dawgs,” Raiola tweeted, announcing his commitment to the back-to-back national champions.

The 6-foot-3, 220 pound passer out of Phoenix, Arizona ranks as the No. 1 overall player in the nation.

He chose Georgia over Nebraska, Oregon and USC.

A former Ohio State commitment, Raiola last visited UGA in March and plans to do so again in June. It was his sixth visit to UGA.  Georgia was also the first program to offer Raiola back in June of 2021.

Raiola has strong ties to Georgia via former Bulldog quarterback Matthew Stafford, who is Raiola’s godfather.

Raiola’s father, Dominic, is a former Nebraska center who spent several years of his NFL career playing alongside Stafford for the Detroit Lions.

Maybe Mondays aren’t so bad afterall.
