The 2022 recruiting class just signed on the dotted line on traditional National Signing Day, but a top uncommitted recruit in the 2023 class is joining the fold during the present signing period. Lebbeus Overton, the No. 3 overall player and top-ranked defensive lineman in the 2023 class, will skip his senior year at Milton (Georgia) High School and reclassify into the 2022 class. Overton is set to announce his college decision in April and enroll this summer.

"I feel like going to college earlier will help me develop as a person and a player," Overton told 247Sports' Steve Wiltfong.

Overton has narrowed down his finalists to Georgia, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oregon and Texas A&M. The 6-foot-4, 265-pound monster had 229 tackles, 96.5 tackles for loss and 48 sacks in three seasons. He is the son of Milton Overton, former Oklahoma defensive lineman (1991-94) and current athletic director at Kennesaw State.
