Georgia Tech Officially Announces Their 20-Man Early Signing Period Class

One of the biggest days of the college football calendar is nearing its end. While the early signing period lasts until Friday, most programs signed their 2026 recruiting classes today.

One of those was of course Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets had one of the best recruiting classes in school history last cycle and were hoping to capitalize on that and the success of this year's team into another solid class.

While this class won't finish as highly-rated as last year's, there is some solid talent incoming, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Georgia Tech was able to land four-star cornerbacks Jaedyn Terry and Traeviss Stevenson, while flipping safety Chris Hewitt Jr from Rutgers this morning.

Just now, Georgia Tech has officially announced their 20-man group for the 2026 recruiting class.
