Georgia Offers Omaha Burke Running Back Malik Johnson
The University of Georgia has extended a scholarship offer to Class of 2026 running back Malik Johnson of the Omaha Burke Bulldogs. Johnson, a 5-foot-10, 190-pound speedster, boasts a 4.4-second 40-yard dash time and averaged 8.5 yards per carry in his junior season. The Bulldogs' star back has already held offers from Nebraska, Iowa State and Kansas State. Johnson's impressive performance at Omaha's summer football camp caught the attention of Georgia's coaching staff, who are looking to bolster their backfield for the future. With a strong summer of training and conditioning ahead, Johnson is expected to be a top target for several Power Five programs. As the recruiting process heats up, Johnson will look to make official visits to Georgia and other top contenders in the coming months, with a decision expected in the spring of 2026.
