Georgia football signee D'Antne Demery has been released from his letter of intent and will not play for the Bulldogs following an arrest on domestic violence charges Saturday night in Athens.
The school made the announcement on Sunday afternoon, after details of Demery's arrest became public. According to the Athens Banner Herald, Demery is accused of grabbing and shoving the woman with which he has a one-year-old child, who also told police Demery "has been physically violent with her in the past."
Demery, 19, was released from the Athens Clarke County jail on Sunday afternoon. The four-star offensive lineman from Brunswick, Ga., was charged with criminal trespass and simple battery after being booked at 10:52 p.m. on Saturday, hours after appearing at Georgia's spring football game.
The 6-foot-7, 310-pound Demery was rated a 4-star recruit and the No. 204 overall prospect in the Class of 2017, according to 247 Sports composite. A U.S. Army All-American, he had scholarship offers from a number of SEC powers in addition to Georgia, including Alabama, Auburn, Florida and Tennessee.
Demery signed with the Bulldogs in February, but had not yet enrolled. According to multiple reports, he was introduced along with a number of 2017 Georgia signees at halftime of the school's G-Day spring game on Saturday.
