Former Georgia Tech defensive end Jordan Domineck has committed to Arkansas after going in the transfer portal in February. Domineck made the announcement Monday on social media.

He follows the decision by former Tech safety Wesley Walker, who also decided in February to transfer, to commit to Tennessee. Walker made his announcement Sunday.

Domineck made the decision after an official visit to Arkansas this past weekend. He had fielded several scholarship offers, including Auburn, Penn State, Iowa State and Michigan State. Domineck, who led the Yellow Jackets in sacks each of the past two seasons, has two years of eligibility remaining.

Walker, from Nashville, Tenn., is returning to his home state. Walker started 13 games over the past two seasons and was sixth on the team in tackles in 2021 with 45. Domineck and Walker are two of the eight leading tacklers on the Tech defense from last year’s team that are not returning to the 2022 team either because of graduation or transfer. Walker has three years of eligibility remaining.
