In a stunning move, highly-recruited catcher, Tyler McMillan, has decommitted from Ohio State University and flipped his commitment to the University of Georgia.

The 5-foot-10, 175-pound McMillan, who is considered one of the top catchers in the country, had been committed to Ohio State since July. However, after a recent visit to Athens, McMillan decided to make the switch to UGA.

“I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve committed to the University of Georgia,” McMillan said in a statement. “The coaching staff, the facilities, and the overall atmosphere at UGA are all top-notch. I feel like it’s the perfect fit for me, and I’m excited to be a part of the Bulldog family.”

McMillan’s decision is a major coup for UGA, which beat out several other top programs, including LSU, Tennessee, and Auburn, for the talented catcher’s commitment.

“We’re ecstatic to have Tyler join our program,” said UGA head baseball coach, Scott Stricklin. “He’s an exceptional catcher with a strong arm and a great bat. We believe he has the potential to make an immediate impact on our team, and we’re looking forward to seeing him in a Bulldog uniform.”

McMillan’s decommitment from Ohio State is a significant blow to the Buckeyes’ recruiting class, which was already considered one of the top classes in the country.

“We’re disappointed to lose Tyler, but we wish him all the best at UGA,” said Ohio State head baseball coach, Greg Beals. “We’ll continue to work hard to build a strong recruiting class, and we’re confident that we’ll find another talented player to fill the void left by Tyler’s departure.”

McMillan’s commitment to UGA is a major boost to the Bulldogs’ recruiting class, which is already considered one of the top classes in the country.

“Tyler is an outstanding catcher who will be a great addition to our team,” said UGA recruiting coordinator, Scott Daeley. “We’re thrilled to have him on board, and we’re looking forward to seeing him make a big impact on our program.”

McMillan is expected to enroll at UGA in the fall of 2025 and will be eligible to play for the Bulldogs during the 2026 season.
