WATCH: New Georgia QB pledge Ryan Montgomery's junior highlights
Georgia has its eight commitment in the 2025 class and it’s at a premium position. Findlay (Findlay, Ohio) quarterback Ryan Montgomery chose Georgia over Florida and South Carolina on Wednesday.
Bulldogs’ quarterback coach and offensive coordinator Mike Bobo visited Montgomery twice during the evaluation period earlier this year. He has also taken at least six visits to Athens since his recruitment began and his junior highlights show why he eventually became a Georgia target.
Georgia has the nation’s No. 7 recruiting class for the 2025 cycle. They have at least two fewer commitments than every team in front.
Montgomery got a Georgia offer in spring of 2023 and he has been on the short list of Bulldog quarterbacks targets since. UGA appeared to have JuJu Lewis and Matt Zollers higher on the board for months but the latter recently chose Missouri over the Bulldogs, Penn State and Alabama. Smith is currently committed to USC.
Still, Montgomery has an official visit set for Georgia on June 21. He last visited the Bulldogs on January 22 and has been in Athens a few times over the past year.
At 6-foot-2.5 212 pounds. Montgomery is ranked as the nation’s No. 186 overall prospect per the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that includes all four websites that publish recruiting ratings. He’s the nation’s No. 14 quarterback and the No. 12 prospect in Ohio.
Once the 2024 season is over, the Bulldogs currently project to have just two quarterbacks on scholarship. Gunner Stockton is entering his third season with the team as a redshirt sophomore. Ryan Puglisi signed with Georgia in the 2024 class and is a true freshman. Georgia is also looking to add a quarterback in the current transfer portal, something it has communicated to recruits and every the quarterback currently on the roster. The Bulldogs also have a commitment from one of the top quarterbacks in the 2026 class, Jared Curtis out of Nashville, Tenn.
