UGA football among top-six for Georgia's No. 3 recruit

Four-star safety recruit Ta'Shawn Poole has named his top-six schools. Poole, a member of the class of 2027, is the third-best recruit in Georgia, per the 247Sports Composite. The 6-foot-2, 185-pound safety is ranked as the No. 4 player at his position and the No. 52 recruit in America.

Poole puts the Georgia Bulldogs, Tennessee Volunteers, Clemson Tigers, Alabama Crimson Tide, Florida State Seminoles and LSU Tigers in his top schools. Poole plays high school football for Howard High School in Macon, Georgia, and is looking to stay in the Southeast. SEC schools make up four of his top six.

The four-star was recently named as a standout at an Under Armour camp in Atlanta. Poole recently visited Alabama around March 24 for a spring practice. The talented safety has a few new teams that have entered the mix for him recently with both Clemson and LSU extending scholarship offers to him in March.

Poole is a priority in-state recruit for the Georgia and coach Kirby Smart. Georgia has seven commitments in the class of 2027 and the No. 8 recruiting class nationally. The Bulldogs have defensive back commitments from four-star Jerry Outhouse and five-star Donte Wright, but both of those players are projected as cornerbacks at the next level. Georgia will likely take in two or more commitments at safety in the rising senior class.

Poole was selected to the 2026 Navy All-American Bowl. He has good strength and can squat 500 pounds.
