Going by the composite rankings, Demary (6-foot-4, 180 pounds) is No. 14 among players at his position, second overall in North Carolina and No. 99 nationally<\/a> in the class of 2023.<\/p>\n

Demary had previously been signed to USC<\/a>. He had also received offers from 16 other schools, including NC State and Tennessee<\/a>. He told Tipton<\/a> that he picked Georgia because it’s close to home.<\/p>\n

“I chose Georgia because it\u2019s close to home and I love family being at my games… Coach Mike White and the staff believe in me and believe I can come in and add to the winning they\u2019re starting to do. I feel like I\u2019m bringing leadership and a winning attitude to Athens.”<\/p>\n

Demary joins four-star forwards Dylan James and Mari Jordan, who have signed their letters of intent. Georgia also has two four-star transfers coming in with Jalen Deloach from VCU and RJ Melendez from Illinois.\u00a0All together, this group ranks No. 25<\/a> in the nation.<\/p>\n
