UPDATE: In a thrilling development for Georgia football, 4-star cornerback Jerry Outhouse Jr. has officially committed to the Bulldogs for the 2027 class. Announced on the CBS Sports YouTube channel on March 6, 2026, Outhouse chose Georgia over notable programs including Texas Tech, Florida, Arizona State, and UCLA, marking a significant boost for the Bulldogs’ secondary.
The 6-foot-1, 180-pound standout from Fort Worth, Texas, is currently rated as the nation’s No. 25 cornerback and 185th overall prospect by 247Sports Composite. Outhouse’s commitment adds depth to Georgia’s roster, which has been bolstered by a strong influx of talent from the transfer portal this cycle.
In a dramatic reveal, Outhouse teased a commitment to Texas Tech before declaring for Georgia, stating, “Every time I went down they showed me love. They just landed a hard worker. I’m going to come in, day in and day out and give 110 percent.” His enthusiasm signals not just his commitment to the team, but also a dedication to elevating his game under the guidance of Georgia’s defensive backs coach Donte Williams.
Outhouse becomes the sixth commitment in Georgia’s 2027 class and the second defensive back, joining the highly-rated five-star Donte Wright from Long Beach, California. Wright is still weighing his options, planning to take six official visits, according to Rivals.com.
This commitment is a part of Georgia’s broader strategy to enhance their defensive lineup, having already added cornerbacks Gentry Williams and Braylon Conely, as well as safeties Khalil Barnes and Ja’Marley Riddle from the transfer portal, alongside six defensive back signees in the 2026 class.
Outhouse remarked on his special relationship with Coach Williams, pointing out the impressive track record of Georgia in placing players into the NFL Draft. “Everyone sees how many guys they’ve put in the draft. I feel like if I go there, it would be something special,” he told 247Sports.
As the 2027 recruiting class continues to take shape, Georgia’s commitment to bolstering their defensive squad is becoming increasingly clear. Fans and analysts alike are eager to see how Outhouse and his fellow recruits will impact the program in the coming years.
Stay tuned for more updates as Georgia football builds momentum towards a promising future with this latest commitment.
