Five-Star 295-Pound Offensive Guard Ty Lockwood Flips Commitment to Georgia Bulldogs After Rejecting Tennessee, LSU Tigers

Ty Lockwood sat at the head of the table, a crisp white Georgia Bulldogs hat in his hands. Just a week ago, he had been all but locked in with Tennessee, and before that, LSU had made a strong push. But as the cameras flashed and the murmurs grew, he took a deep breath and made it official.

“I’m committing to the University of Georgia,” he announced.

Gasps and cheers filled the packed high school gymnasium. His parents, both lifelong Tennessee fans, exchanged glances but clapped nonetheless.

Just a month prior, Lockwood had told reporters he was “100% locked in” with the Vols. Tennessee had rolled out the red carpet—private visits, conversations with NFL alumni, and a promise to be a key piece of their offensive rebuild. LSU, meanwhile, had pitched their legacy of producing dominant linemen, offering him a vision of championships in Baton Rouge.

But something about Georgia pulled him in. Maybe it was the relentless persistence of Kirby Smart. Maybe it was the late-night film sessions where he saw himself bulldozing SEC defensive lines in Athens. Or maybe it was just that gut feeling—one he couldn’t ignore.

Tennessee coaches had called just hours before his decision, hoping for a last-minute change of heart. LSU boosters had made one final push. But his mind was made up.

As he slipped on the Georgia hat, he knew he’d made the right choice. Athens was home now. And soon, he’d be clearing the way for Bulldogs running backs on the biggest stage in coll

ege football.
