The Georgia Bulldogs received a commitment from three-star in-state defensive tackle Marlin Dean. Dean is a high school football player at Elbert County High School that is located in Elberton, Georgia.
Dean is a member in the class of 2021 and is Kirby Smart’s first commitment in the trenches for the class. During his four seasons in Athens Kirby Smart has transformed the trenches on both sides of the football. Dean looks to be the next difference maker.
Here’s how University of Georgia social media took in the latest talented commitment:
