South Kent Big Man Heading to SEC

New England Recruiting Report | Sunday, March 20th, 2011

Nemanja Djurisic, a 6-foot-8 power forward from the South Kent School in Conn., made a verbal commitment to Georgia on Sunday.

Djurisic was one of the top big men left available on the East Coast and had seen considerably increasing high-major recruitment throughout his final season. However, things started to get complicated in recent weeks as the coaching carousel at Utah and N.C. State had a big impact on his decision making process. In addition to Georgia, Utah and N.C. State, the Montenegro native also held high-major offers from Arizona State, Minnesota, and Kansas State while a host of mid-majors were eagerly trying to hang on including East Carolina and Fairfield.
