Former Georgia Bulldog CB Julian Humphrey set to visit Texas A&M
COLLEGE STATION— The transfer portal officially opened at midnight on Dec. 9, and the Texas A&M football program is off and running, scheduling impact players to be on campus this weekend.
Former Georgia Bulldogs starting cornerback Julian Humphrey is officially visiting A&M, he tells the Austin American-Statesman Monday.
Humphrey stepped away from the Bulldogs earlier in the season and has been an obvious potential target for the Aggies since the regular season ended. The 6-foot-2-inch cornerback confirmed with the Statesman his intentions to visit this upcoming weekend.
Texas A&M appears to be the first of his scheduled visits, and if the Aggies want to bring him into the fold, they may need to be aggressive in their approach to secure the playmaker’s commitment.
Humphrey finished his time at Georgia with 23 appearances, 21 total tackles, and one five pass defensed.
Before joining the Bulldogs, Humphrey was a four-star prospect, ranked No. 13 cornerback in the 2022 class.

The Texas Tech System is acquiring the historic Tudor Revival ‘English Home’ in Lubbock to serve as the new chancellor’s residence.
Money and rankings don’t make a great university. Providing opportunities for disadvantaged students and protecting academic freedom, however, do.
Case in point: Michael and Susan Dell recently surpassed $1 billion in giving to the University of Texas at Austin, launching a plan to build a new medical center and advanced research campus in north Austin.
To be sure, this is a magnanimous gift that will fund important initiatives. While enormously grateful for this contribution, I am disappointed that this gift was not accompanied with a strong message from Michael Dell admonishing the University for gutting DEI and infringing upon academic freedom.
As a colleague of mine astutely observed: “Good luck recruiting doctors and med students. The attacks on DEI and political climates will mean a lot more than rankings and money long-term.”
UT System Board of Regents Chairman Kevin Eltife, referencing the Dell gift, is right: “We are transforming this site into a new campus the world has never seen before.” Yes, never seen, but in a very negative and dangerous way!
Last week, I received a message from the Texas Exes: “This is your last chance to show your support during 40 Hours for the Forty Acres, UT Austin’s Texas-sized fundraising event. Can we count on you?”
My answer: “No, absolutely not. I won’t give one dime to a university that no longer is committed to diversity and preserving academic freedom.”
Having proudly taught at UT for 41 years, I am sad to say this.
