He also qualified for the 300-meter hurdles and the long jump. Meanwhile, on the hardwood, Bell averaged 15.2 points and 7.3 rebounds per game as a sophomore and 16.6 points and 9.3 rebounds as a junior.
On the football field, Bell as been equally impressive. He helped Clinch County reached the quarterfinals in 2022 with 31 catches for 742 yards and 10 touchdowns. Playing both ways, he added 16 tackles and an interception on defense. This past season, Bell’s time was spent primarily in the backfield as he carried the ball 119 times for 943 yards and 16 scores.

Georgia signed two receivers in the Class of 2024 in December – Nitro Tuggle and Sacovie White. Tuggle finishes the recruiting cycle ranked No. 125 in the country according to the On3 Industry Ranking while White comes in at No. 430. Both are on campus already as early enrollees and were with the team during its preparation for the Orange Bowl.
The Bulldogs also added a trio of transfer receivers from the Power Five ranks as London Humphreys (Vanderbilt), Colbie Young (Miami) and Michael Jackson III (USC) joined the group in Athens. UGA returns two of its top five pass catchers on the team including the top one in the position group. Dominic Lovett, Rara Thomas and Dillon Bell lead the way while the likes of Arian Smith, Anthony Evans, Tyler Williams and Cole Speer provide exciting potential.
