The Georgia Bulldogs are pushing to steal a quarterback recruit from an SEC rival. They offered three-star quarterback Derrick Baker, according to an announcement from his high school (Milton High School). Baker is currently committed to the Tennessee Volunteers.
Baker is a three-star quarterback from the class of 2027. The 6-foot-1, 226-pounder plays high school football for Milton High School based in Alpharetta, Georgia. He committed to the Tennessee Volunteers on Feb. 11, 2026. Baker is ranked as the No. 40 quarterback in the country, per the 247Sports Composite.
He is expected to visit to Tennessee's campus on June 5, according to Rivals. Interestingly enough, he's hasn't officially visited Georgia's campus. The Auburn Tigers lead in visits from him, according to Rivals' visit counter.
Georgia's looking for the quarterback of the future once Gunner Stockton leaves the program. They struck out swinging on five-star quarterback Elijah Haven (Alabama) and four-star quarterback Davin Davidson (Florida), so they're running out of time to find a high-rated 2027 QB recruit.
