Jontavius Wyman Commits to Georgia
Jontavius Wyman, a 2026 defensive back, has announced his commitment to the Georgia Bulldogs.
The Georgia Bulldogs have been reeling in commitments on the trail and players are starting to stack up for the 2025 recruiting class. However, it’s never too early to start getting the next year’s class into shape and the Bulldogs just added a player to their 2026 recruiting class. Defensive back Jontavius Wyman has announced his commitment to Georgia.
Wyman out of Jonesboro High School in the state of Georgia is rated as the 154th-best player in the country, 12th-best defensive back and the 19th-best player in the state of Georgia for the 2026 class, according to 247 sports composite rankings. Wyman received an offer from Georgia earlier this year along with a long list of other power four programs. He now joins quarterback Jared Curtis as the only two commitments in the class.
Curtis committed to Georgia back in March of this year. He is rated as a five-star prospect, the eighth-best player in the country and the top-rated quarterback for the 2026 recruiting class. The Bulldogs still have a long way to go before the 2026 recruiting class is official, but they are off to a strong start with the early additions of Wyman and Curtis.

A Griffin, Georgia man is now under arrest, charged in connection with a cold case homicide investigation in New Jersey, prosecutors say.
It’s been nearly 37 years since 42-year-old Mauricio Cuadra was shot during an apparent home invasion; now, authorities say 62-year-old Joseph Quiros-Soto is charged with his murder.
Officials say on Aug. 9, 1989, the officers with the Bayonne Police Department responded to reports of a home invasion and shooting at an apartment on the 400 block of Avenue C. Inside the home, they found Cuadra suffering from a gunshot wound. Cuadra died shortly after.
The case remained a mystery until 2024, when Quiros-Soto confessed to the murder to police in Locust Grove, Georgia, saying that he had become a born-again Christian, NJ.com reports.
Police told the outlet that he gave the detectives details of the crime and allowed visiting Hudson County authorities to take a DNA sample, which matched a stain on the victim.
Authorities were eventually able to obtain a warrant for the Georgia man’s arrest. On May 27, 2026, deputies with the Spalding County Sheriff’s Office arrested Quiros-Soto at his home in Griffin, charging him with murder and murder during the commission of a burglary.
Quiros-Soto is being detained in Georgia, awaiting extradition to New Jersey.
