Georgia gets recruiting flip from 3-star cornerback from SEC rival

Nash Johnson’s recruiting flip on Tuesday was timely for a rivalry week.

The 3-star cornerback from McEachern High in Powdesrville switched his commitment from Auburn to Georgia football days before the teams play Saturday in Athens.

The 6-foot, 170-pound Johnson becomes the 22^nd commitment in Georgia’s 2027 class and second cornerback commitment. The other was Alius Mayo of Modesto College who committed to Georgia on Sept. 29 after flipping from Cal.

Johnson is ranked as the nation’s No. 551 overall prospect and No. 54 cornerback by the 247Sports Composite.
