The commitments keep coming in for Pat Fitzgerald and his staff. A week after snagging two 2020 commitments on consecutive days in Cam Porter and Jaheem Joseph, NU has its fourth 2020 recruit in three-star Malik Washington. The Lilburn, Ga. native joins the class of 2020 on the same day NU got a commitment from 2019 DB Brandon Joseph.

Georgia is quickly becoming a recruiting stronghold for Northwestern — eight current Wildcats hail from the Peach State.
