Owings Mills (M.D.) McDonogh School four-star Nick Abrams has reignited Georgia’s hot streak on the recruiting trail as he has committed to the Bulldogs.

The No. 247 overall prospect in the 2026 Rivals Rankings chose the Bulldogs over Alabama, Michigan and Oregon. He is Georgia’s 30th commit in the 2026 class. Abrams is the second linebacker to commit to Georgia. Four-star Shadarius Toodle is also committed to Georgia after flipping from Auburn last month.

A few factors won Nick Abrams over

Abrams has been heavily recruited by Georgia since the calendar switched over to 2025.

Abrams spent a weekend in Athens during spring practice. He also took an official visit in May during Georgia’s Scavenger Hunt weekend.

The Bulldogs surged following both those visits. Abrams admits the weekend in the spring practice changed his perspective of Georgia a bit.

“I had a lot of suspicions about how good Georgia would be and how the visit would be and what SEC ball was like,” Abrams said back on May 8. “It kind of just proved my point that it’s a great place. It also proved my pre-conceived notions that they put a lot of guys in the league and it’s because they practice really hard and they take care of their bodies. That visit showed me that Georgia could be a possible place for me. I was excited to get around the guys and see how hype they were, see how tough they were, especially their first day in pads. They were hitting. It was great to see that and it sparked my interest even more to where I could see myself being there.”

Development was key

Georgia’s development, namely from defensive coordinator Glenn Schumann, was also a consistent factor for Abrams.

“Georgia is a prestigious university, especially when it comes to football,” Abrams told DawgsHQ back on May 8. “Coach (Kirby) Smart, coach (Glenn) Schumann have put numerous linebackers in the NFL. The development is there. You have the ability to play early. They put a lot of guys in the league early, which means they have to have a lot of young guys step up. That’s intriguing. That academic side as well, it’s a pretty good university, especially networking with the ‘G’ logo, which is known throughout America. The brand recognition and the ability to get true NIL opportunities was something that intrigued me and made it hard for them not to be in the top four.”
