10. Ryan Puglisi (Avon, Conn.)
Signed with: Georgia
Ryan Puglisi committed to the Bulldogs for 14 months before signing. He is the only quarterback for Georgia after five-star Dylan Raiola decommitted and signed with Nebraska.
“The physical traits are size, speed, intelligence,” Georgia coach Kirby Smart said during the early period, via Dawgs247. “For the intangible traits, character, what the kid’s makeup is, the velocity with which he throws the ball. We have guys that throw it hard. We’ve had guys that can’t throw it hard. They’ve had different levels of success. The common denominator for us has been intelligence, ability to create and extend plays. So we look at all those things.
“He came down here, Ryan came down here, I bet 5 or 6 times. He checked the box every time for the right kind of kid, the right kind of competitor. He’s embraced the part about learning. He sees himself as a guy that needs to come in and develop under a system. He’s seen Carson’s success, so I think he understands that. He wants to grow and get better.”
