Georgia football gained another big commitment in the 2022 recruiting class on Sunday afternoon. Four-star outside linebacker Jalon Walker out Salisbury, N.C., chose the Bulldogs over Alabama, Clemson and North Carolina.

Walker’s commitment comes just three days after Georgia secured a commitment from five-star athlete Malaki Starks.
Walker is rated as the No. 4 outside linebacker, the No. 2 player in North Carolina and the No. 50 prospect overall in the 2022 recruiting class (247Sports).
The Bulldogs now have the second ranked class in the country behind Ohio State.
Here’s how UGA Twitter reacted to Walker’s decision:
Boom! 4 star OLB Jalon Walker has committed to UGA! Another big get for Lanning and the defense! #GoDawgs #ATD
