Bogart (Ga.) North Oconee four-star edge Khamari Brooks is staying home. The No. 104 overall prospect in the On3 Rankings has committed to Georgia over Alabama on Monday.

Brooks is Georgia’s 19th commit in the class of 2026. Brooks is following 2025 signee Landon Roldan as North Oconee’s second Georgia player in as many years.

There are a lot of family ties with Brooks and the Bulldogs. Brooks’ great uncle Horace King played running back at Georgia.

His mother’s stepfather was Charles Junior, a former Georgia wide receiver. The Bulldogs have been a part of his family for a long time. That connection made the opportunity to play at Georgia a special opportunity for Brooks and his family.

“Emotions were high and getting that offer I was really excited to hear that,” Brooks said after getting the offer back on Oct. 9, 2024. “I have a lot of background here so I really love this program and the way that Coach Smart has this culture is great.”

The Bulldogs have checked a lot of other boxes in Brooks’ recruitment. Development and winning were a major piece of the puzzle for Brooks.

“What also separates them is their culture, they’re together a lot,” Brooks told DawgsHQ back on Jan. 17. “I got to watch their practice and the way they move in practice and the way that they work. With their early enrollees, they got to get a lot of hands-on work with coach Jarvis Jones. I could see that they care about their young guys and getting them up to speed… Some of their younger guys to get in with the twos and work against the ones. To go against those guys that play in those big-time games is very important.”
