The Georgia Bulldogs are among the schools seeking a commitment from elite defensive tackle recruit Mykel Williams. Williams is a member of the class of 2022. He’s a four-star defensive tackle from Columbus, Georgia, who stars for Hardaway High School.

At Hardaway, Williams has played both offensive and defensive line. He shows explosive closing speed on defense. Williams has positional versatility along the defensive line, where he lines up at defensive tackle and defensive end. Williams does a good job of getting his hands up to deflect passes and should earn early playing time in college.

Mykel Williams previosly announced his top 10 schools via Twitter. He will decide between Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, LSU, Penn State, USC, Arizona State, Georgia Tech, Kentucky and, Georgia.

The four-star defensive tackle announced his commitment date of Mar. 15, which is his father’s birthday.

The 6-foot-5, 255-pound Williams is ranked as the No. 4 defensive tackle in the nation and No. 5 player in Georgia according to the 247Sports composite.

Georgia has the No. 4 ranked 2022 recruiting class in the nation with six commits. All of Kirby Smart and Georgia’s commitments in the class are in-state prospects.
