Georgia football adds commitment from 4-star Bear Alexander

The Georgia Bulldogs added a commitment from four-star Ryan High School defensive tackle Bear Alexander.

The Georgia Bulldogs were in four-star defensive tackle Bear Alexander’s list of top schools. Now, Alexander has committed to the University of Georgia.

Alexander is a junior at Ryan High School in Denton, Texas. Ryan High School just went 15-0 and won a state title in Texas in dominant fashion.

Alexander is a member of the class of 2022 and sports offers from major college football programs, including Miami, UNC, Michigan, USC, Auburn and Oregon. He had a lot of schools to pick from and is one of the best defensive tackles in his class.

Alexander announced his commitment to Georgia via his Twitter account:

Alexander ranks as the No. 140 player in his class and the No. 9 defensive tackle in the country. At 6 feet, 3 inches and 325 pounds, the Ryan High School product has the size and skill to play right away in the SEC.

The four-star recruit announced his top 16 schools in December. Alexander put Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Miami, Tennessee, Ohio State, USC, Oklahoma, LSU, Oregon, Texas, TCU, Minnesota, Michigan, Auburn and Texas A&M in his top schools, but now he’s committed to the Bulldogs.

The four-star defensive tackle will look good in the red and black:

2022 five-star defensive tackle Bear Alexander sets commitment date

Five-star defensive tackle and Sooners 2022 target Bear Alexander will commit on Feb. 3. National Signing Day won’t be the only news.

National Signing Day is approaching on Feb. 3, and the Oklahoma Sooners will look to close out their 2021 recruiting cycle. The class sits at No. 10 in the 247Sports composite team rankings. That isn’t the only newsworthy item on the day. Five-star defensive tackle from Denton-Ryan, Bear Alexander has announced that he will make his commitment on this day as well.

Alexander was part of the defense that helped lead the Raiders to the Texas 5A Division 1 state championship. He played alongside Oklahoma Sooners signee Billy Bowman. Provided that Alexander makes his pledge to the Sooners, Alex Grinch, and Lincoln Riley, he will be the first defensive lineman to commit to the 2022 class.

Oklahoma currently has four commits with three wide receivers and one inside linebacker for the class in the early going. Alexander would have the fourth-highest grade among the current group of commits.

Texas Football Recruiting: Five recruits Steve Sarkisian must land

Without stepping a foot on campus, the intrigue of coming to play for UT has been reignited. Here are five recruits Sarkisian must land:

[jwplayer 2tmwT897-er0jUifI]

Tom Herman’s recruiting success came to a screeching halt during the 2021 cycle. And once Quinn Ewers decommited, the 2022 class was going to take a wrong turn as well. Despite finishing with three top 10 classes in three years, recruiting at an elite level was nearly dead in Austin.

Insert Steve Sarkisian, one of the top offensive recruiters during his time at Alabama. Without stepping a foot on campus just yet, the intrigue of coming to play for the University of Texas has seemingly been reignited. His reported staff is filled with top-notch recruiters on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball.

“We cannot let the top talent in the state of Texas leave the state of Texas,” said Sarkisian at his introductory Zoom press conference. It was something Herman was letting the Crimson Tide, Ohio State, and Oklahoma do on a yearly basis. Getting off to a fast start after the national championship is going to be crucial.
