Social media reacts: Former All-Pac-12 TE transfers to Georgia

Graduate transfer tight end Benjamin Yurosek has announced that he is transferring to the Georgia Bulldogs. Yurosek, who has over 100 career receptions and 1,000 career receiving yards, started his college football career at Stanford before transferring to Georgia.

Yurosek is ranked as the No. 6 transfer tight end in the country and the No. 101 transfer recruit. The former Stanford tight end is considered a four-star transfer, per 247Sports.

Last season, the 6-foot-4, 240-pound tight end recorded 16 catches for 239 yards and a touchdown. Yurosek missed several games in 2023 due to injury, but was named as an honorable mention All-Pac-12 selection.

Yurosek accumulated 42 catches for a career-high 653 yards and three touchdowns in 2021. Pro Football Focus named him to its All-Pac-12 first team for his outstanding 2021 campaign.

Georgia football social media is excited to land another talented transfer ahead of the 2024 college football season:
