Vanderbilt Intensifies Pursuit of Jared Curtis

As of Oct. 25 — 39 days before Signing Day on Dec. 3 — five-star Nashville Christian quarterback Jared Curtis, widely regarded as a top QB and listed at 6'4", 225 lbs, who re-committed to Georgia on May 5 after an earlier decommitment, is drawing renewed interest from Vanderbilt. Curtis recently threw six touchdown passes in a 65-12 victory, underscoring his arm strength, accuracy and athleticism. Vanderbilt has mounted a visible push: Curtis visited the Commodores twice this week, attended practice with his high school coach, and plans to be on campus for the Missouri game and ESPN’s College GameDay, with the Commodores emphasizing a quicker path to playing time as Georgia starter Diego Pavia nears the end of his eligibility. Curtis’s agent reiterated that he remains a Georgia commit and said Curtis will attend the Vanderbilt game "as a fan," but recruiting is not final until he signs on Signing Day. Georgia’s staff, including offensive coordinator Mike Bobo, remains actively involved in Curtis’s recruitment as the Bulldogs try to lock down a cornerstone of their 2026 class.
