Social media reacts 4-star Jontavius Wyman commits to UGA
The Georgia Bulldogs now have two commitments in the class of 2026 after four-star cornerback recruit Jontavius Wyman committed to the Dawgs. Wyman plays high school football for Jonesboro High School in Jonesboro, Georgia.
The four-star defensive back is ranked as the No. 12 player at his position in the 2026 cycle. The 5-foot-11, 170-pound cornerback is the No. 19 prospect in Georgia and the No. 154 player in the country, per 247Sports. There's still a long way to go before members of the class of 2026 can sign, but Wyman is a promising recruit.
Georgia's other commitment in the class of 2026 is from five-star quarterback Jared Curtis. Curtis is the top ranked quarterback in the 2026 cycle. Georgia now has the seventh-ranked recruiting class in the 2026 cycle.
Here's how Georgia Bulldogs fans and coaches reacted on social media after Jontavius Wyman announced his commitment to the University of Georgia.

UGA loves DBs that tackle
Like this clip from ‘26 DB @JontaviusW23
We see so many DBs completely whiff on fly-by tackles. Refreshing to see a young guy sit down, engage blocks, and make the tackle.
Wyman is a + athlete who is a step ahead of everyone else.
