Three-star wide receiver Landon Roldan has quickly committed to Georgia football.
Landon Roldan is about to go on vacation, so it’s logical that he announced his commitment to Georgia with a tweet earlier this evening.
He would never be a part of a school ceremony on a hat selection guy. He hates that. Hates the spotlight.
The 6-foot-plus, 180-pound rising senior dislikes anything that draws attention to himself.
However, he has a deep love for the Georgia Bulldogs, a passion shared by his entire family.
The 3-star wide receiver, known for his consistent 4.4-second 40-yard dash, committed to Georgia today.
His grandfather, a UGA alum, is thrilled. His great-grandfather and great uncle also graduated from UGA.
Roldan, who grew up dreaming of attending UGA, often wore a UGA jersey in family photos. Today, he commits to UGA from a family of Bulldogs.
Now, he will be the one donning the jersey, participating in the “DawgWalk” on Saturdays as a Bulldog, preparing for games in Athens.
His head coach at North Oconee describes him as “even-keeled” and “ultra-competitive,” never letting his emotions show, regardless of the game’s situation.
“He’s a naturally gifted athlete in both baseball and football,” North Oconee coach Tyler Aurandt said. “He has elite speed and has had it since he was little. I also coached his six-year-old youth football team at Grayson, so I’ve known Landon for a very long time.”
“It’s funny. I don’t tell a lot of people this, but I’m his uncle. Not many people know that.”
Last fall, Roldan caught 50 passes for 1,029 yards and 13 touchdowns. He also ran 14 times for 79 yards and three scores. However, he might be most exciting to watch on punt returns or catching the ball on a tunnel screen, where his speed and vision allow him to navigate through traffic.
This prospect offers more than just blazing 4.4 speed as a downfield threat. He possesses quickness in tight spaces, allowing him to dodge defenders with a burst before hitting his elite top-end speed to leave safeties and cornerbacks behind.
“He’s always been the fastest player on every team he’s been a part of. He’s a naturally gifted playmaker. When you get the ball in his hands, he’s electric. He’s been making plays since he was six years old,” said his coach, Tyler Aurandt.
Roldan chose UGA over Georgia Tech, the only two schools he visited officially.
“He’s a great kid,” Aurandt added. “High character, good student, never in trouble. From a football standpoint, he’s the guy you want handling the ball as much as possible.”
Although it might seem a lazy comparison, Roldan shares some clear attributes with Ladd McConkey. He has deep speed and is described by his coaches as both shifty and quick. However, he is more of a deep threat and playmaker around the edge on speed sweeps rather than a slot receiver type.
On film, Roldan doesn’t showcase possession skills but shines as a vertical playmaker who can stretch the field and challenge SEC defenses.
“We use him in many different ways,” Aurandt said. “He lines up at running back, wideout, and is our punt and kick returner. He’s going to start at corner. We get him on the field as much as possible.”
Roldan is also a standout centerfielder for the North Oconee baseball team, where his elite ability to track the ball in the air stands out.
“He has an unbelievable ability to track the ball,” Aurandt noted. “At this level, there aren’t many kids who can do that really well. The baseball part of his game translates well to football. He’s always had to track balls, and on the football field, he can make adjustments when the ball is in the air that many kids can’t.”
“I would say his speed and his ability to track the ball are two things that make him really special.”
There is still some debate about whether he will graduate this December or stay for his entire senior year to play one more season of high school baseball.
The Georgia staff has informed Roldan that they are supportive of whichever option he decides regarding his graduation and subsequent enrollment at UGA.
He is now the 17th commitment in Georgia’s 2025 class and the fourth receiver, joining 4-star prospects Talyn Taylor, Travis Blackshear, and Tyler J. Williams.
