In a stunning turn of events, five-star running back Sion James G. has officially decommitted from the Duke Blue Devils and flipped his commitment to the Georgia Bulldogs, sending shockwaves through the college football recruiting world. The highly sought-after prospect from the Class of 2025 had initially pledged to Duke in what was seen as a major win for the Blue Devils’ program, but now, the powerhouse Georgia Bulldogs have secured his services, further solidifying their reputation as a dominant force in college football recruiting.
James, who ranks among the top running backs in the country, had been one of Duke’s most important commits, with the potential to change the trajectory of their program. However, after taking additional visits and evaluating his options, he ultimately decided that Georgia’s elite football program, rich tradition, and consistent success in producing NFL-caliber talent were too enticing to pass up.
Georgia, fresh off another strong season and a national championship appearance, is known for its powerful running game and its ability to develop top-tier athletes at every position. The Bulldogs’ coaching staff, led by head coach Kirby Smart, has built a reputation for attracting top recruits, and James’ commitment only adds to their already stellar 2025 class.
For Duke, this is a major setback in their recruitment efforts. The Blue Devils have worked hard to establish themselves as a rising program, but losing out on a player of James’ caliber is a blow to their aspirations. Despite this, Duke’s staff remains determined to keep building their roster and will undoubtedly continue to target high-profile recruits in the future.
For now, Georgia fans are celebrating the addition of one of the most dynamic players in the country, while Duke looks ahead to retooling its recruiting strategy. The race for the nation’s top recruits continues, and James’ flip is just the latest chapter in the ever-evolving world of college football recruiting.
