4-star running back recruit Jae Lamar names SEC school as his top choice

The Georgia Bulldogs have been names as the leader for four-star running back recruit Jae Lamar.

Lamar plays high school football for Colquitt County in Moultrie, Georgia. The 6-foot, 205-pound running back is ranked as the No. 126 recruit in the class of 2026. Lamar is the No. 13 running back nationally and No. 19 prospect in Georgia, per 247Sports.

“Georgia is still standing No. 1, and after that, there is no real list. What puts Georgia on top is the way they recruit me. They do a great job with me,” said Lamar in an interview with On3 (subscription required).

After Georgia, Lamar is also considering the Auburn Tigers and Miami Hurricanes. Lamar took visits to Auburn, Florida, and Miami this winter in addition to Georgia. He has planned visits with Georgia (May 30), Auburn (May 16) and Miami (June 13). Lamar’s cousin, Ny Carr, is a Miami Hurricanes signee.

Georgia head coach Kirby Smart has the No. 12 recruiting class in the 2026 cycle thus far including the five total commitments, but UGA has no commitments at running back.
