Four-star offensive lineman Zykie Helton is one of the top recruits in the class of 2026. Helton, who was committed to the Alabama Crimson Tide from July 2023 to March 2024, has named his top schools.
The 6-foot-2, 280-pound interior offensive lineman plays high school football for Carrollton High School in Carrollton, Georgia. Helton is the No. 21 interior offensive lineman in the class of 2026, per 247Sports. The Carrollton star is the No. 30 recruit in Georgia and the No. 259 recruit in the country.
Helton’s top schools are Georgia, Alabama, Florida State, Indiana, Miami, Texas A&M and Colorado. The four-star announced his top schools via social media.
Head coach Kirby Smart and Georgia have a lot of work to do in the 2026 recruiting cycle. Georgia has only two commitments in the class: defensive backs Dominick Kelly and Jontavius Wyman. UGA recently lost a commitment from five-star quarterback recruit Jared Curtis in the 2026 cycle.
