Five-star linebacker Tyler Atkinson, a highly sought-after uncommitted recruit, has narrowed his recruitment to four schools: Georgia, Texas, Clemson and Oregon. Atkinson will likely be announcing his commitment date soon and the schools involved are trying their best to land the nation’s top linebacker recruit.
Atkinson is a familiar face in Athens, having visited Georgia multiple times for camps and prior visits. The Bulldogs have been actively recruiting him for years, using these in-person opportunities to sway Atkinson to come play between the hedges.
Georgia has been the well-known leader for Atkinson and many people look at him as a potential future Butkus Award winner for the Bulldogs if he joins the program. Georgia has made Atkinson a top priority throughout his time during high school and needs to land a five-star in-state prospect like him. They already have a commitment from five-star quarterback Jared Curtis, who is the only five-star in Georgia’s second-ranked recruiting class.
Ranked as the nation’s No. 8 overall recruit by the On3 Industry Rankings and is top recruit Georgia. The 6-foot-2, 205-pound linebacker had a dominant junior year. He led Grayson to a 14-1 record and a Georgia AAAAAA state championship, racking up 166 tackles, 32 tackles for loss, 13 sacks, an interception and a forced fumble.
