Houston County quarterback Jake Fromm took one more step toward officially becoming a Georgia Bulldog on Wednesday by signing a financial aid agreement with UGA. Dawgs247 confirmed the news with his father, Emerson Fromm, on Wednesday morning.

The financial aid agreement binds UGA to Fromm but not the other way around. The fact that Georgia offered Fromm the ability to sign and he took it means the Bulldogs must accept the four-star signal caller as a part of its 2017 class. Still, Fromm can choose to go elsewhere.

The 6-foot-2, 224 pound gunslinger plans on enrolling at UGA in January and told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he actually signed the agreement back in August before his senior season began.

Originally an Alabama pledge, Fromm flipped to Georgia in early March and has been one of the Bulldogs' most vocal recruiters since. He is ranked as the 45th overall prospect and as the third pro-style quarterback in the nation according to the industry-generated 247Sports Composite. He's also seen as the fourth overall prospect in the state of Georgia.
