One of Georgia's biggest remaining prospects in the 2026 recruiting class is set to announce his college commitment this afternoon.

One of the biggest remaining prospects in Georgia's 2026 recruiting class is set to announce his commitment this afternoon. Anthony Lonon Jr., a 4-star defensive line prospect from Athens, Georgia, will reveal which school he will be continuing his football career at.

Lonon is the son of former Georgia football player Anthony Lonon Sr., who played tight end for the Bulldogs in the late 1990s. Lonon Jr.'s mother, Deborah, is also a two-time graduate of the University of Georgia.

The Georgia Bulldogs have heavily pursued the defensive line prospect throughout his recruiting process and remain one of the two schools remaining in Lonon's final decision. The 2026 prospect is expected to choose between the Bulldogs and Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets sometime around 1 p.m. this afternoon.

Should Lonon elect to join the Bulldogs' recruiting class, he would bolster what has already been a great recruiting cycle for Kirby Smart and his staff. Currently, the Dawgs have 30 commits in a class that ranks first in the country.
