Kirby Smart and Georgia football have been recruiting the defensive back position at an elite level for the past two recruiting cycles. In the class of 2022, the Bulldogs signed one of the greatest recruiting secondary classes of all time. The Dawgs signed three five-star defensive backs and three four-star defensive backs.
Georgia football added another five-star defensive back in the class of 2023. Cornerback AJ Harris committed to the Georgia Bulldogs on June 16. Harris is the No. 25 recruit in the rising senior class and the No. 5 player at his position.
