College football recruiting: Georgia lands top 2027 RB Kemon Spell

Kemon Spell, the nation’s top-ranked 2027 running back, chose Georgia after reopening recruitment following Penn State coaching change and a visit to Athens.

  • On Monday, Kemon Spell committed to the University of Georgia after finalizing his visit to Athens this past weekend and announcing it on social media.
  • After decommitting following James Franklin's departure, Spell reopened his recruitment and drew interest from Georgia, Notre Dame, Miami, Nebraska, Oregon, and Ole Miss.
  • Despite an ankle injury sidelining him for three games, Kemon Spell rushed for 1,755 yards, scored 32 touchdowns, and returned a kickoff 98 yards as one of nine early five-star recruits in the 2027 recruiting class.
  • Georgia's class immediately gains a marquee addition, boosting its top-10 ranking, while Penn State faces a setback in rebuilding the 2027 class, as coach Matt Campbell sought to re-secure Spell.
  • Missing a planned Penn State visit, Spell reportedly missed it due to a statewide snowstorm as his finalists included Georgia, Notre Dame, Ohio State, USC, and Miami.
