After an intense recruiting tussle between Georgia and Oregon, Class of 2026 No. 1 quarterback Jared Curtis picked the Bulldogs and recomitted to Kirby Smart's program on Monday.

After Curtis' addition, Smart's roster comprises eight players: Jared Curtis, Vance Spafford, Brady Marchese, Lincoln Keyes, Graham Houston, Seven Cloud, Zech Fort and Kealan Jones.

After landing the Nashville native, Georgia's 2026 class climbed up from No. 17 to No. 7. Now, the Bulldogs are looking forward to creating the nation's top recruiting class.

On Wednesday, On3's Hayes Fawcett shared an X post regarding Georgia's Class of 2026 top prospects.

"After landing No. 1 QB Jared Curtis, a #1 Class for Georgia is very much a possibility. The Dawgs have a shot to land: Jackson Cantwell (#1 OT), Tyler Atkinson (#1 LB), Mark Bowman (#2 TE), Derrek Cooper (#3 RB)," read the post.

Responding to the post, Curtis hyped up Georgia with four words.

"Let's go! Go Dawgs!!!"

Jackson Cantwell, who won the shot put at the 2024 Nike Outdoor Nationals, is the nation's top high school football recruit. Tyler Atkinson is the No. 1 linebacker in the class and No. 1 in Georgia. Mater Dei's Mark Bowman is the No. 2 tight end and No. 4 in California. Chaminade High's Derrek Cooper is No. 3 running back and No. 2 in Florida.

If Georgia is successful in landing these top recruits, Smart's program is set to become a powerhouse. Some fans even joked about these possibilities and their effect on other programs.

"Rest of CFB better be praying this doesn't happen," one fan commented.

With Curtis' strong foundation as the No. 1 QB and No. 6 rank nationally, he may act as a linchpin in Georgia's favor, helping to land top recruits.
