Taiwo, who plays for Lovejoy High School in Hampton, Georgia, chose UGA over Kansas, Wake Forest, Virginia Tech, and Rutgers. His commitment is part of a recent trend for Georgia, which has added several three-star recruits, deviating from their previous focus on higher-rated players. Taiwo took an official visit to Georgia from May 29-31. The Bulldogs now have 11 total commitments, with eight being three-star recruits, and currently hold the No. 26 recruiting class in the nation.
