how is he 25?  did he play minor league baseball?

2017[edit]

Bennett was a walk-on at Georgia his freshman season.

He did not take a snap the whole season. After five-star high school quarterback Justin Fields committed to Georgia in 2018, Bennett decided to transfer to Jones County Junior College.

2018[edit]

After his transfer, Bennett played in 12 games and threw for 16 touchdowns for 1,840 yards. After his lone season at Jones County he entered the transfer portal for a second time. He was a three-star prospect heading into his transfer. He was about to join the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns, but he ended up returning to Georgia. The Bulldogs were in need of a backup quarterback after Fields transferred to Ohio State. Georgia offered Bennett a scholarship. He accepted and became Georgia's second-string quarterback.

2019[edit]

As Jake Fromm's backup, Bennett had two touchdowns and one interception on the season. He also had one rushing touchdown. He most notably appeared in the SEC Championship Game when Fromm went down with an injury.[8]

2020[edit]

Heading into his junior season, Bennett started the season as a backup quarterback to D'Wan Mathis. Mathis was named the starter after Jamie Newman, the planned starter, opted out of the season. Bennett became the starter after poor play from Mathis.[9] A few months later, USC transfer JT Daniels took the starting job.[10]

2021[edit]

Bennett began the season as the backup to JT Daniels. He made his first appearance and first start of the 2021 season against the UAB Blazers after Daniels went down with an oblique injury. In that game, Bennett tied the record for most touchdowns in a game by a Georgia quarterback, with five.[11] Bennett was trusted with the starting job for the rest of the season, and he led the Bulldogs to a 12-0 record. He finished the season with 29 touchdowns and seven interceptions.[12]

On December 4, 2021, Bennett threw for three touchdowns and two interceptions in the 41-24 loss in the SEC Championship Game against the Alabama Crimson Tide.[13] He was criticized for the loss, leading many to believe that JT Daniels should get the start against Michigan in the Orange Bowl.[14] Despite the loss, Bennett led the Bulldogs to a victory in the 2022 College Football Playoff National Championship game in a rematch against Alabama.[15] It was Georgia's first national title since 1980.

2022[edit]

On January 20, 2022, just ten days after winning the National Championship and amid speculation that he would transfer, Bennett announced his return to Georgia.[16][17][18] In the preseason Adam Rittenberg named Bennett a Heisman Trophy candidate.[19]

During the 2022 regular season, Bennett led Georgia to a 13−0 record, including an SEC Championship. During the 2022 SEC Championship Game, he passed for four touchdowns and 274 yards, being named the game's MVP in a 50−30 victory.[20] Bennett finished the year throwing for 20 touchdowns, 3,425 yards, and six interceptions while rushing for seven touchdowns. On December 5, 2022, Bennett was named a finalist for the Heisman Trophy.[21][22]
