Georgia, Florida seeking commitment from Buford WR

The Georgia Bulldogs and Florida Gators are among the top schools vying for a commitment from three-star wide receiver and cornerback prospect Isaiah Bond.

Georgia football has the nation’s No. 1 ranked 2022 recruiting class with 12 commitments. The Dawg’s top rival, Florida, has the No. 24 rated recruiting class in the country.

The Gators have plenty of time to improve their ranking, but they need to add more than five commitments.

Back in March, the Georgia Bulldogs extended a scholarship offer to athlete Bond. Bond won a state championship in 2020 with Buford High School (Buford, Georgia).

Later, Bond ranked Georgia, Alabama, Miami, Wisconsin, and Pittsburgh in his top five schools.

Where will the talented defensive back play college football? 247Sports projects Bond to end up with the Florida Gators, despite not putting them among his top five.

Bond is a three-star recruit who ranks as the nation’s No. 571 overall player and as the No. 50 rated athlete in the class of 2022, according to 247Sports.

The Buford star runs a blazing time of 10.48 in the 100-meters, so he’s certainly got elite speed. In football, Bond plays both defensive back and wide receiver, but is considered more of a wide receiver recruit. What position he plays may depend on where he commits.

Bond locked in his commitment time of 6:00 p.m. on Sunday via his Twitter account:

Isaiah Bond is an impressive track athlete. He’s one of the best in Georgia. Here’s Bond’s 10.48 performance in the 100-meters event.
