The Georgia Bulldogs have landed a massive three-star legacy commit. Offensive lineman Ty Johnson committed to Georgia, according to Hayes Fawcett. Johnson is going to the school his father played in over South Carolina, Tennessee, and North Carolina.
Johnson has a mammoth 6-foot-5, 300-pound frame. The three-star commit from the class of 2027 is playing football for Lucy Beckham High School in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. He is ranked as the No. 62 offensive lineman from the class of 2027.

He continues in his father’s footsteps. His dad, Travis Johnson, was an offensive lineman for the Bulldogs. He was on the same team as Georgia head coach Kirby Smart and Georgia offensive coordinator Mike Bobo. He even roomed with Smart during his college football tenure.
The Bulldogs offered Ty Johnson shortly after “Junior Day,” and Johnson made a silent commitment a few weeks ago. “It is something that I have had on my mind for a pretty good bit,” he said to Jeff Sentell of Dawg Nation. “I still wanted to go visit some places, but I just feel like I have the best connection there. It is one of the best places to be and I knew I was going to be up there (today), so I thought, why not?”
Johnson looks up to Georgia offensive lineman Monroe Freeling, who grew up 10 minutes away from Johnson’s hometown in Charleston, South Carolina. With Freeling becoming a potential first-round pick in the 2026 NFL draft, Johnson believes he can reach that level too.
Johnson is Georgia’s seventh commitment in the class of 2027. The Bulldogs have the fourth-ranked recruiting class in the nation.
