Georgia Bulldogs junior punter Noah Jones is transferring to the Samford Bulldogs. Jones announced his decision to commit to Samford via social media.
Jones thanked the coaches at Samford for the opportunity before announcing his commitment to the Bulldogs.
Jones entered the transfer portal shortly after Georgia starting punter Brett Thorson said he’d be back for the 2025 college football season. Jones thanked his Georgia coaches before entering the transfer portal.
“Thank you Coach Smart, Coach Cochran, Coach King, Coach Ray, Coach Benidict and the University of Georgia for the past four years and the opportunity I was given!! With that being said, I am entering the transfer portal with one year of eligibility remaining!” said Jones via social media.
Jones enrolled at Georgia in 2021. He participated in Georgia’s G-Day spring scrimmage multiple times but never saw regular-season game action. His top opportunity to play came in the Sugar Bowl. UGA punter Brett Thorson suffered a significant knee injury in the SEC championship game, so Georgia had a competition at punter.
However, Jones lost the punter competition to freshman Drew Miller, who punted four times in the Sugar Bowl for 159 yards (39.8 yards per punt). Both Miller and Thorson return in 2025, so UGA is set at punter.
