It’s no surprise that Houston has Georgia as one of his finalists as he is from Buford. The SEC teams who have also show interest in him include Auburn, Florida, Kentucky, Ole Miss, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Vanderbilt.
Alabama has two DLs signed up from the 2024 class. 4-star commit Jeremiah Beaman and 3-star commit Isaia Faga are committed to the Crimson Tide as it stands.
If Houston ends up going with the in-state Bulldogs, he would be the sixth DL to commit to Kirby Smart’s 2024 class.
Houston has competed in a wide variety of sports. Besides football, Houston also wrestles and competes in track and field for his high school. The Buford native took snaps at TE last season as well.
