Oct 26 (Field Level Media) – Three-star senior quarterback prospect Bo Bryan, the son of country music star Luke Bryan, announced his commitment to Georgia on Sunday evening.

“Only place I wanna be ​Athens I’m coming home,” Bo Bryan posted on his X ‌account.

Both father and son are longtime fans of the Bulldogs football program, which Bo Bryan confirmed on Tuesday had made a formal offer — his first from a Power 4 school.

The 6-foot-1, 200-pounder from Battle Ground Academy in Franklin, Tenn., is rated the No. 141 quarterback ‌in the ​country and No. 70 player from Tennessee in ⁠the Class of 2027, according ⁠to the 247Sports Composite rankings.

Bryan broke his collarbone on Oct. 16 to end his season. He was 114-of-155 passing (73.5%) for 2,006 yards, 30 touchdowns and three interceptions in a spread offense.

Battle Ground coach Bobby Bentley told ​the Athens Banner-Herald that Bryan, a pocket passer, has a “very good” arm.

“He understands spatial awareness in the passing game,” said Bentley, who was an offensive ⁠assistant under current Georgia offensive coordinator Mike ⁠Bobo when both were at South Carolina in 2020. “A team ​leader in the locker room, the epitome of what a quarterback represents on and ​off the field.”

Bryan was a backup as a junior in 2025, ‌when Battle Ground won the TSSAA Division II-AA state title.

He chose the Bulldogs over offers from Austin Peay, East Tennessee State, North Alabama, UT Martin, Arkansas State, Tennessee Tech and Eastern Kentucky, according to reports.

Luke Bryan, a native of ⁠Leesburg, Ga., attended Georgia Southern but remained a Bulldogs fan and regularly attends games. He and Jason Aldean co-headlined a concert at UGA’s Sanford Stadium in April. ⁠He also is a ‌judge on ABC’s “American Idol.”

Georgia already had a verbal commitment ⁠for the Class of 2027 from four-star QB Colton Nussmeier ​of ‌Archbishop Rummel in Metairie, La. Nussmeier is the brother of ​former LSU ⁠quarterback Garrett Nussmeier.

The Bulldogs also have a commitment for the Class of 2028 from Battle Ground’s Koehn Dial, a four-star offensive lineman. Georgia’s 2028 class also includes five-star prospect Jayden Wade of IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla. Wade is rated the No. 1 QB and No. 7 player in the country by 247Sports’ ​Composite rankings.
