Wide receiver Christian Owens of Griffin, Ga. (Griffin H.S.) has verbally committed to the Georgia Bulldogs. He is the 1st commitment for UGA’s 2015 recruiting class.
Owens (6-5, 205) committed to the Bulldogs at today’s G-Day Spring Game. He also has a scholarship offer from Vanderbilt.
“Yes sir. He committed to Georgia today,” Griffin head coach Steve Devoursney told UGASports.com. “They offered him as a wide receiver or tight end type last week.”
“He’s a kid that is going to be able to come across the middle and catch the ball,” DeVoursney told the AJC. “He’s got good hands. He’s a really good possession receiver. He’s a big target, and he’s going to work hard. He will do exactly what they tell him. He’s a good kid.”
The news comes one day after Georgia and 2014 running back commitment Stanley Williams parted ways. Williams told ESPN, “I have not officially de-committed yet, but I am open to all of the schools recruiting me.”
Georgia’s is now down to three commitments for 2014: defensive back Nick Glass of Atlanta, GA, wide receiver Krenwick Sanders of Jesup, GA, and running back Stanley Williams of Bethlehem, GA.

I wish SW good luck but with what looks like eminent commitments from Sony Michel and Nick Chubb, and likely one more high caliber back we will be in great shape.
So, Stanley, you might look to sign with a school that doesn't play UGA. If you so choose to ink with a rival what you gonna do when they (UGA Defense)come for you?
