Georgia flips 4-star CB Caden Harris from Vanderbilt
June 14 - Four-star cornerback Caden Harris flipped his commitment from home-state Vanderbilt to Georgia on Saturday. Harris, who plays at Haywood High School in Brownsville, Tenn., is ranked as the No. 11 cornerback and No. 85 prospect overall in the 2026 class by the 247Sports composite. He announced his Georgia commitment with a short video posted to social media site X that included this note: "Recruitment shut down!!" Harris committed to Vanderbilt in April but took an official visit to Georgia on June 6 and had four others scheduled with Southeastern Conference teams. "I felt real strong about Georgia coming in," Harris told DawgNation. "We'd be in contact for a while, and they had just been hard on me ever since. We had the OV planned. I knew for sure I had to come down and take it. I was coming into it strong, and I left out of it even stronger." Harris' commitment is the fifth this month for Georgia, which stands at No. 4 in the 247Sports class rankings. The Bulldogs trail Southern California, Ohio State and Notre Dame, still early in the 2026 recruitment cycle. Georgia's class includes one five-star prospect, quarterback Jared Curtis from Nashville (Tenn.) Christian School. He is ranked by the composite as the No. 1 QB and No. 4 overall player in the class. --Field Level Media

4-star WR Messiah Hampton commits to Oregon
June 14 - Four-star wide receiver Messiah Hampton committed to Oregon's Class of 2026. Hampton got to know the Ducks' receiver coach, Ross Douglas, when the coach worked at Syracuse. Douglas recruited Hampton, who plays at James Monroe High School in Rochester, N.Y., at the time. And when Douglas moved on to Oregon in February, so did his interest in Hampton, a 6-foot-1, 180-pound wideout. Hampton on Friday chose Oregon from among the list of finalists he announced in May, which also included Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan, Georgia and Miami, as well as Syracuse. He took official visits to Syracuse and Miami over the past few weeks. Hampton told 247Sports recently that his choice of school would be based on where he could see the most development and where he envisioned himself best fitting into an offensive scheme. Hampton had 56 catches for 869 yards and eight touchdowns in the 2025 season. The 247Sports composite lists Hampton as the No. 11 wide receiver nationally and the No. 1 player in New York. --Field Level Media
