Jared Curtis reveals the Georgia coach who made him commit to the Bulldogs & it’s not Kirby Smart

Jared Curtis, the top-ranked quarterback in the Class of 2026, has recommitted to Georgia. Curtis opened up his recruiting in October but has now recommitted to the Bulldogs.

The 6-foot-3 quarterback is playing high school football at Nashville Christian School and is a five-star quarterback. After announcing his decision to go to Georgia, Curtis said offensive coordinator Mike Bobo was a key reason for his decision.

"Just talking to Coach Bobo, I've been up there so many times and built relationships with all the coaches," Curtis said. "But getting up there with Coach Bobo and him coming down to us, that made an impression, and getting to talk to him in general."

This is not the first time Curtis has praised Bobo, as he said what he does for quarterbacks also enticed him to recommit to Georgia.

Curtis felt he could thrive under Bobo's system, which is why he committed to the Dawgs.

“The biggest thing is the relationship with Coach Bobo and what they do with quarterbacks,” Curtis said. “Coach Bobo has a long history, and he’s done great as an offensive coordinator, and I’m looking forward to getting back up there.”

It's an interesting comment from Curtis, as Bulldogs coach Kirby Smart didn't appear to have much of a role in his commitment. Instead, it was the offensive coordinator who would be working with Curtis often.

Curtis threw 2,830 yards for 40 touchdowns and three interceptions while rushing for 637 yards and 18 rushing touchdowns.
