JaBarrius Garror commits to Texas, spurning Georgia

JaBarrius "Chicken" Garror, a four-star edge rusher recruit, committed to the Texas Longhorns on June 12, 2026, choosing the program over Georgia, Auburn, and Florida. Garror, who plays at Vigor High School in Mobile, Alabama, had a standout season with 21 sacks last year, ranking as the No. 12 edge rusher nationally. His commitment bolsters Texas's 2027 recruiting class, which currently ranks 12th in the nation. Meanwhile, Georgia's recruiting class is ranked 26th, and they are seeking additional top prospects to enhance their pipeline. Recent commitments for Georgia in June include four-star quarterback Colton Nussmeier and four-star linebacker Joakim Gouda, but they currently hold just one edge rusher recruit.
