5-star Georgia football commit flips to Miami

Five-star cornerback recruit Donte Wright has been expected to decommit from the Georgia Bulldogs for quite a long time. Wright made it official when he flipped his commitment from Georgia to the Miami Hurricanes.

"After a lot of prayer, thought and talks with my family," Wright said via social media. "I would like to announce I will be committing to the University of Miami."

Wright is Miami's 11th commitment in the class of 2027. The Hurricanes have the No. 10 recruiting class in the country.

Wright was also strongly considering the Oregon Ducks, but he elected to commit to Miami. The five-star has official visits planned with UCLA, Oregon, Georgia, Miami and Michigan.

Wright plays high school football for Long Beach Poly in Long Beach, California. The 6-foot-1, 170-pound cornerback is the second-best player at his position in the class of 2027. Wright is the No. 1 recruit in California and the No. 9 recruit nationally, per 247Sports.

Wright's decision to flip to Miami is a significant loss for Georgia's recruiting class. The Bulldogs have just six commitments right now and the No. 30 recruiting class in the nation. Georgia recently lost a commitment from four-star defensive back Jerry Outhouse, who flipped to UCLA, but the Bulldogs added one from five-star tight end Jaxon Dollar.
