Georgia is down a commit in the Class of 2025, as four-star running back Jabree Wallace-Coleman of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania’s Imhotep Institute announced his intentions to reopen his recruitment on Sunday evening.

Wallace-Coleman was Georgia’s longest tenured commitment of the Class of 2025, having pledged his services to the Bulldogs in July of 2022. The nation’s No. 192 overall prospect for the junior class, Wallace-Coleman was close with former Georgia defensive back coach and now Syracuse head coach Fran Brown, noting their relationship upon making his initial decision.

“I’ve been talking to my family and coaches about it since last month, and we finally decided it was time to do it. It just felt right,” Wallace-Coleman said. “The whole time I was there it just felt like home the coaches were really nice and understanding about everything…I am close with Coach Fran [Brown] and Coach [Dell] McGee. I like their coaching style and transparency with me.”

While Georgia will likely fight to get him back into the fold, the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine points toward Penn State as the new favorite for his services, with the Nittany Lions given a 38.1-percent chance to ultimately land Jabree Wallace-Coleman’s commitment.

Georgia now holds a single commitment at the running back position for the Class of 2025 in the form of three-star Cedar Grove standout Bo Walker, the nation’s No. 471 overall prospect in the Industry Ranking. Walker joined the class in October of this year.

Currently, the Bulldogs rank as the No. 2 class in the 2025 cycle.

Defensive lineman Justus Terry, tight end Elyiss Williams, linebacker Jadon Perlotte , offensive lineman Micah DeBose, tight end Ethan Barbour, cornerback Tae Harris, and the aforementioned Walker round out the group of current commits to the Bulldogs for the junior class as of today.

Jabree Wallace-Coleman had been emphatic in his decision at the time of commitment

Eyebrows were raised when Wallace-Coleman initially committed, given the early nature of the pledge and distance from home. At that time, he sought to dispel those concerns.

“Georgia has always been one of my most anticipated colleges (from an offer perspective). I was blessed with the opportunity to receive the offer, and I am honored to make the commitment…I was raised to stand on my decisions, and that’s exactly what I’ll do,” Wallace-Coleman said.

Unfortunately, that didn’t work out as planned, and now, instead, the Bulldogs will search for his replacement in the junior class.
