The Georgia Bulldogs picked up their fifth verbal commit of the 2022 class on Thursday when Baxley (Ga.) Appling County three-star outside linebacker Darris Smith picked the Bulldogs over Auburn, Tennessee, Florida, and others. He joins, Deyon Bouie, Tyre West, C. J. Washington, and Marquis Groves-Killebrew as verbals in his class so far.
The Georgia offer in October was a dream come true for the 6-foot-6 edge defender and that was enough to end the recruiting process early on for him.
“I am a big fan of Georgia, my Mom is a bigger fan actually,” Smith told Dawgs247.
As a sophomore, Smith tallied 32 tackles, 13.5 for loss, 4.5 sacks, two pass deflections, and a forced fumble. He reports a 4.71 in the 40-yard dash. Dan Lanning was the lead recruiter for the Bulldogs.
"I like coach and we hit it off pretty good quickly," he said.
