Third Georgia defensive back shuts down his recruitment
Another Georgia Bulldogs recruit has announced he's staying with Georgia. Class of 2026 four-star safety commit Zech Fort shut down his recruitment.
This news is hardly shocking. Fort has been beating the drum for other recruits, such as Breck Kojolay, Preston Carey, and Zykie Helton, to come to the Georgia Bulldogs. Fort is teammates with Preston Carey at IMG Academy and Georgia has had a long list of IMG Academy alumni that played for the Bulldogs such as Nolan Smith Jr. and Ellis Robinson IV.
Fort was one of the first recruits to commit to Georgia, committing in January, and now he's taken a step to cement his spot on Georgia's roster in 2026.
Fort is the No. 11 safety prospect and No. 133 recruit in the nation. He was on the Polynesian Bowl roster and Under Armour All-American Game roster. While there, he was probably persuading many recruits to commit to Georgia.
Georgia has the No. 1 recruiting class in the nation and the biggest part of their 2026 recruiting class is their secondary. Georgia has seven commits in the secondary, with five four-stars and two three-stars. Defensive backs Justice Fitzpatrick and Jordan Smith have already shut down their recruitment too.
