Georgia football got a huge boost to its 2022 recruiting class when five-star linebacker Malaki Starks committed to the Bulldogs back in March.

At the time, Starks ranked as the nation’s No. 12 ranked player. Now, Starks is the No. 8 overall player and No. 1 ranked linebacker in the nation according to 247Sports’ new updated rankings.

Starks is a three-sport athlete at Jefferson High School (basketball, track & field) and is rated as the No. 2 recruit in Georgia, the No. 1 linebacker in the country, and the No. 8 prospect overall.

What really stands out about Starks is his versatility.
