4-star RB Chauncey Bowens officially signs with Georgia
The Georgia Bulldogs spent spots heavily at the running back position for the Class of 2024, and four-star prospect Chauncey Bowens was a key piece of their focus. Now, he’s officially signed with the Bulldogs, and will arrive in Athens soon to begin working with the team.
Ranked as the No. 223 overall prospect in the On3 Industry Ranking, Bowens hails from North Palm Beach, Florida’s The Benjamin School. Bowens currently ranks as the No. 17 running back and No. 30 prospect in the state of Florida for the Class of 2024.
Initially committed to the Florida Gators, Bowens flipped his pledge to the Bulldogs in early June during his official visit to Athens.

A&M coach jokes over kick times
“My second time visiting Georgia, one of the first things coach Smart told me was, ‘Even if you don’t come to Georgia, you are still the prototype Georgia running back,” Bowens told On3’s Chad Simmons upon committing. “Coach McGee, he told me the same thing, ‘You’re the prototype Georgia running back, so you have the build, you have the speed, you have everything that a Georgia running back has.’ They compete in the NFL, how Georgia sends their running backs to the league and how prepared they are is impressive.”
Scouting Report on Chauncey Bowens
“Physically-gifted runner with one of the better size-speed combinations among 2024 running back prospects. Measured at over 5-foot-11 and north of 215 pounds heading into his senior season. Has an ideal build with a powerful base and lower body. Has posted strong track times, highlighted by a personal best of 10.88 seconds in the 100 meters as a junior. Was a state finalist in the 100 meters as a sophomore with a 10.90 second mark. Shows considerable burst and easily pulls away in the open field. Explosive in his movements. Spins out of tackles and has the capability to run over defenders. Rushed for 940 yards and eight touchdowns on 130 rushes as a junior. Will need to increase his production to be on par with other blue-chip running back prospects and top draft picks at the position. Can also stand to improve his lateral agility as he looks more comfortable as a straight-line athlete at this time. Ran his fastest track times at the beginning of his junior season. Young for the cycle with a July birthday. Will not turn 18 until he’s enrolled as a freshman in college.” – Charles Power, On3 Director of Scouting and Rankings, on Chauncey Bowens
