Edwards, a 6’5 guard out of Holy Spirit Preparatory School, picked the Bulldogs over Florida State and Kentucky when it was all said and done.  However, UNC, Kansas and a handful of other schools were also in play late in the race.

After landing the five-star Atlanta native, Georgia now has the nation’s top recruit in both football and basketball, per 247Sports.

Here is how Bulldogs both current and former reacted to the commitment news.
