5-star QB commit Jared Curtis disputes report he has flipped to Vanderbilt
After a Rivals report indicated that Jared Curtis, a 5-star prospect and the No. 1 quarterback in the 247Sports Composite, flipped his commitment from Georgia to Vanderbilt, Curtis disputed the news.
“Don’t know where all this is coming from. Haven’t had a chance to talk to either school yet. I’ll keep y’all posted,” Curtis posted to X.
Curtis, who committed to Georgia in May, has a scheduled signing-day ceremony at 9 a.m. CST Wednesday.
After the Rivals news, DawgNation confirmed with people close to Curtis, who plays at Nashville (Tennessee) Christian School, that he indeed changed his commitment.
Hayes Fawcett and Steve Wiltfong of Rivals reported first that Curtis informed the Georgia staff of his decision Tuesday morning.
If he picks Vanderbilt on Wednesday, Curtis will become the highest-rated signee in Vanderbilt history. That comes on the heels of the program’s first 10-win season in program history.
The flip from Curtis would move Vanderbilt from the nation’s No. 43 class to No. 29 overall, just behind SMU and just ahead of Indiana.
