Per On3’s Hayes Fawcett, the Bulldogs landed a pair of four-star recruits on Monday.
Defensive lineman PJ Dean (Clemmons, NC.) committed to Georgia, picking the Bulldogs over the South Carolina Gamecocks and the Ohio State Buckeyes.
Dean’s commitment was followed by that of 2027 cornerback Donte Wright (Long Beach, Calif.). Wright elected to leave his home state, choosing Georgia ahead of the USC Trojans, Oregon Ducks and Texas A&M Aggies.

It means the Bulldogs have now sealed 16 commitments this month, stacking the deck in a big way as they aim to put themselves in a position to consistently contend for national titles after missing out in each of the last two seasons.

According to On3, the Bulldogs have the No. 2 recruiting class in the country for 2026, one headlined by the top-ranked quarterback in Jared Curtis (Nashville, Tenn.) and the top-ranked defensive lineman in James Johnson (Cape Coral, Fla.).
In Dean, they now have the No. 5 defensive lineman in 2026, with Wright giving Georgia the No. 7 cornerback in the 2027 class.
Georgia’s pulling power in the recruiting game remains extremely impressive, and it is setting the Bulldogs up for a very bright future.
