TRANSFER NEWS:  University of Georgia ompletes yet another strong transfer class with the addition of former Duke outfielder Devin Obee. Obee finished last season with a .309 average, 11 doubles, 16 homers and 50 RBIs. Really like the way #UGA looks on paper for 2025.

You just thought Georgia baseball coach Wes Johnson was through adding players to his 2025 team.

Tuesday, Duke grad transfer Devin Obee announced via Instagram that he will be joining the Bulldogs.

He’ll come to Athens as a mid-year transfer and be eligible to play this spring.

This is another significant move for Johnson and his Bulldog coaching staff.

Obee played in all 60 games for the ACC Blue Devils last year, batting .309 with 16 home runs and 50 RBI.

  1. surprised that he was not drafted last year - must have told scouts he was committed to another year of school.

  2. Agree

    Did not make the transfer decision until after the draft
