Georgia football lands massive commitment from talented 5-star prospect

Coach Kirby Smart and the Georgia football program picked up another highly ranked commitment Thursday after a spring of practice.

Mekhail Sherman, a five-star outside linebacker out of St. John’s College High School, chose the Bulldogs over the Ohio State Buckeyes.

Sherman is ranked No. 13 in the nation and No. 2 at his position as well as No. 1 in the District of Columbia.

The five-star outside linebacker was in town for G-Day and visited Columbus the following Saturday but has now committed to Coach Smart and the Dawgs.

Sherman also had interest in Alabama, Arizona and Penn State but later zeroed in on the Bulldogs and Buckeyes.

With this massive commitment, Georgia will have even more momentum to try and potentially flip Paris Johnson from Ohio State and pick up Tate Ratledge on Monday.
