Georgia WR Tommy Bush has entered the portal. Here’s our breakdown.
Recruiting: Bush took official visits to Georgia, Ole Miss, Michigan State and Nebraska before committing to the Bulldogs on National Signing Day. Baylor and Texas were also heavily involved at the end.
With the Bulldogs: Bush played in three games while with the Bulldogs, grabbing one reception. He missed the 2020 season due to injuries sustained after he was hit by a car.
Potential landing spots: Minnesota, Utah, Texas State, Baylor, TCU, Texas Tech, Virginia and others have been mentioned early.
Farrell’s Take: As you can see by his high school ranking, Bush has some serious upside with his size and length, and he can run a bit as well. He battled a groin injury early in his career and the car accident forced him to miss this past season. There also have been some concussion concerns. He’s intriguing as a prospect but hasn’t done a lot and is a long way from what he was in high school. Unless someone takes a chance at the Power Five level he’ll have to drop down.

IMPACT METER
The Transfer Portal continues to change the way college football programs recruit and mange their rosters so we here at Rivals.com continue to evolve our coverage. Each time a player of note enters the portal, we will examine their potential impact on the college football landscape and assign an impact rating, both when they enter the portal and when they choose a destination. The scale is from 1-10 and the description below explains the scoring scale.
1.1-4.0 — Not a big impact expected, likely a non-starter and down the bench depth player.
4.1- 6.0 — A solid impact can be expected in the right scenario and has the potential to battle for a starting job.
6.1-9.0. — A high impact player who won’t change a program but will certainly be a very good contributor and starter.
9.1- 9.9 — A very high impact player who should start the moment he steps on the field and will change the outlook of a program immediately.
10 — A franchise transfer who has a chance to be an All American and one of the elite players in college football.
