6-Foot-5, 285-Pound Graham Houston Commits to Georgia: He chose Georgia over Florida, Tennessee and many others. “Bulldawg Born and Buford Bred: Graham Houston, Welcome to the Dawg Nation!”The Georgia Bulldogs continue to solidify their standing as a recruiting powerhouse, landing four-star interior offensive lineman Graham Houston from Buford High School. Houston, a 6-foot-5, 285-pound prospect, announced his commitment to Georgia, making him the seventh pledge in the Bulldogs’ Class of 2026 and their first offensive line recruit. The decision wasn’t a surprise to many who followed Houston’s recruitment. Speaking with On3’s Hayes Fawcett, Houston expressed his long-standing admiration for the Bulldogs. “Georgia always treats me right, and I’ve been lucky to have a great relationship with Coach [Stacy] Searels and the other offensive line coaches,” he said. Proximity to home and Georgia’s rich football legacy played a significant role in Houston’s decision. “Georgia is very close to home, and that’s important,” he shared earlier this year. “They have a great history, and Coach Searels has put a lot of guys in the NFL, so that is nice.” Houston’s commitment is a testament to Georgia’s dominance in recruiting top talent within the Peach State. The Bulldogs have consistently drawn elite players from their home turf, and Houston adds to a growing list of in-state stars choosing to stay close. The Buford standout’s skill set makes him a valuable addition to Georgia’s offensive line. Known for his strength, technique, and ability to create lanes for the running game, Houston has all the tools to become a key contributor for the Bulldogs. With a reputation as a disciplined and coachable player, he fits perfectly into Georgia’s system under head coach Kirby Smart. Houston joins a class that already includes four-star prospects Vance Spafford, Zech Fort, Lincoln Keyes, and Brady Marchese, as well as three-star commits Kealan Jones and Seven Cloud. With these additions, Georgia’s 2026 class currently ranks 15th in the On3 Team Industry Rankings, a number likely to rise as the Bulldogs continue their recruiting efforts. Houston plans to focus entirely on Georgia, opting out of other official visits. “I was excited to receive the offer. Growing up watching Georgia and having many family members as fans made the decision feel right,” he said. As Georgia builds momentum in recruiting, Houston’s commitment underscores the program’s ability to attract top-tier talent and maintain its position as a perennial contender in college football. The Bulldogs’ future looks brighter with Houston anchoring the offensive line in the years to come.
