Georgia basketball back in the running for Upson-Lee standout Tye Fagan | Columbus Ledger-Enquirer

Upson-Lee product Tye Fagan will consider staying closer to home after being granted a release from his national letter-of-intent Friday afternoon by Middle Tennessee State.

The sudden move for the senior guard comes after Kermit Davis accepted a head coaching job at Mississippi earlier in March. At the time of Fagan’s pledge to play for the Blue Raiders, Georgia was his only scholarship from a Power 5 program.

Now UGA is back in the running. Immediately after his announcement, a number of Fagan’s followers sent replies petitioning him to join the Bulldogs.

“Yeah, (Georgia is back as a contender in my recruitment),” Fagan told The Telegraph.
