National Signing Day did not carry the usual fanfare for the Bulldogs.
Twenty of Georgia’s prospects for the 2021 recruiting class already have signed with the program, doing so during the early period in December.
Georgia did not land its final 2021 target, Terrion Arnold. The nation’s No. 3 safety from Tallahassee, Fla., chose Alabama over Georgia and Florida.
The Bulldogs did receive a (literal) big signing for next year’s class.
Big Bear Alexander, a 6-foot-3.5, 315-pound junior from Texas, announced his intent to join the Bulldogs in 2022. The nation’s No. 2 DT and No. 5 overall prospect by Rivals announced his college commitment on National Signing Day for the 2021 class. Georgia was able to beat out intense recruiting from the likes of Alabama, Oklahoma, Texas and Texas A&M for his services, among others.
I would like to thank God , my family, and all the coaches.For all the things he has blessed me with. I am thankful for the many schools that recruited me throughout this process. I’m a 100% committed to the University of Georgia @maka_difference #GoDawgs#🔴⚪️⚫️🐶🐶🐶 pic.twitter.com/dnf6LnYaxD
