Georgia’s top defensive targets for 2021; can UGA land three 5-star DBs?

Can Georgia football land three 5-star defensive backs for this recruiting cycle? Here are UGA’s top targets.

5. OLB Small Mondon

4-star outside linebacker Small Mondon ranks as the nation’s No. 37 overall player, No. 3 ranked OLB and No. 3 player in the state of Georgia.

Out of Paulding County High School, Mondon and Georgia coaches met in person three times in the month of January, including two visits paid by coaches and one trip to Athens.

Georgia offered the 6-foot-3 215-pounder who also played running back for his high school. Right now, it looks like Mondon is all Georgia, with the Dawgs in prime position to land him.

6. DE Quintin Somerville

Out of Scottsdale, Arizona, Somerville ranks as a 4-star strong side defensive end with heavy interest from Georgia’s staff.

If Georgia is able to land Somerville, he would be the second player in a row from Saguaro High School in Scottsdale to come to Georgia — 5-star CB Kelee Ringo, also out of Saguaro HS, committed to Georgia for 2020.

Somerville stands 6-3 and weighs 230 pounds. He and Ringo both visited Georgia recently and I’m sure Ringo will do his best to get Somerville to Athens.

He ranks as the 74th overall player in his class.
