Taken from yesterday's Georgia High School Football Daily email:
Carrollton quarterback Julian Lewis announced Jan. 16 that he was reclassifying and graduating early, meaning this will be his final high school season. No Georgia player since Trevor Lawrence entered his freshman year more celebrated, and Lewis has delivered, throwing for 7,212 yards and 96 touchdowns and winning 25 of his 28 starts while building the most lucrative NIL profile of any Georgia high school athlete. Lewis is committed to Southern Cal. Reclassifying is rare in Georgia but not unprecedented. In 2022, another five-star Georgia recruit, Milton defensive tackle L.T. Overton, reclassified to sign early with Texas A&M, but unlike Lewis’s decision, it came after playing his final season.
So, this would have been Lewis' junior season at Carrollton... and, I guess it still is. He'll not be back for his senior year, which is more so of greatest interest to head coach Joey King and the rest of the team.
Lewis has visited UGA multiple times. He seems (thus far, anyway) to be sticking to his commitment to Southern Cal.
