Kirby Smart is not just focused on the 2027 recruiting class for Georgia; he's already looking ahead, securing a commitment from the top recruit of 2028, quarterback Jayden Wade. Wade, who committed back in November 2025, has shown early on where his heart lies, but as we all know, a verbal commitment isn't the final chapter.
The buzz around Wade is heating up, with Tennessee and LSU making strong pushes to sway him. Tennessee's Josh Heupel and LSU's newly appointed Lane Kiffin are both keen on bringing Wade into their fold, hoping to flip his commitment.
Despite the SEC rivals' interest, Wade remains steadfast in his allegiance to Georgia. In a recent chat with 247Sports, he reassured fans of his dedication: "I'm all the way locked in with Georgia," Wade stated. "I might visit a couple other schools, but nothing has changed with Georgia, nothing is changing with Georgia."
It's clear that Wade is content with his choice, and while he plans to explore other campuses, it would take a significant shift to change his mind. His dreams of reaching the NFL feel tangible at Georgia, where Smart's track record of success speaks volumes.
As Wade continues to navigate the recruiting landscape, Georgia fans can breathe a little easier knowing their future star quarterback is committed to the Bulldogs' vision.
