The No. 9 overall 2022 high school player from the state of Georgia, according to 247Sports, is 4-star offensive tackle Addison Nichols.
Nichols is also rated as the No. 9 overall offensive tackle in the country for the 2022 recruiting class. The Norcross, GA native will be entering his junior year at the Greater Atlanta Christian School in Atlanta, GA.
Nichols has offers from nearly every major Division 1 FBS school you could imagine, but released his top-12 earlier in July, including the Dawgs in the mix.
