Georgia misses out on elite safety; chooses Auburn

Georgia has a had another stellar Early Signing Day.

Most things have gone Georgia’s way, however, the Bulldogs did just lose a recruiting battle with Auburn and Gus Malzahn for 4-star safety Eric Reed.

Reed, the nation’s 175th overall player out of Shreveport, Louisiana, chose Auburn over Georgia and LSU.

The 6’1” 197 pound DB would have been a nice one to get, especially with Georgia losing J.R. Reed and possibly Richard LeCounte.

Luckily for Georgia, the Dawgs were able to pull off a big commitment from a different 4-star safety out of Louisiana, Major Burns, who signed today.
