Ridgeland WR Bowman ready to talk to UGA coaches

Ridgeland’s Michael Bowman, arguably the state’s top wide receiver, says he plans to attend the Georgia-Georgia Southern game on Saturday.

Bowman wants to commit to Georgia, and says the Bulldogs have promised an offer, providing he raises his test scores. He talked to Georgia assistant Stacey Searels earlier this week.

“I called [Searels] from a different cell number, and he was like ‘Who is this?’ Bowman said with a laugh. “I told him it was me, and he asked if I was coming to the game and about my grades.

“He said ‘We have big plans for you, just keep hanging in there. You know what it takes.’ He said they can start calling again on Sept. 1, and he plans on calling me every week.”

Bowman appears to be the only in-state receiver that interests Georgia. Rantavious Wooten of Bell Glades, Fla., will choose between Georgia and LSU on Friday.

Anyone know how many scholarships Georgia has remaining? 14 committed so far, I thought we only had 12 for this group?

Based on attrition, UGA should have 20+ scholarships this year.

well there will be at least a few who enroll early and will count against last year’s numbers. Probably sign 18 or so this year. Hopefully a few more cornerbacks and OLineman.
