Won state 7A heavyweight title for second straight year. Probably redshirt in 2021 and be a beast in 2022.

Dang, his left leg seems way shorter than his right. Hope that doesn't affect his hip fluidity. /s
I think that Fairchild is gonna b an absolute beast and a 3 year starter at Georgia after likely taking a RS this year. He'll probably send a couple of guys to the Portal as well which is the downside but he's big, physical, nasty and athletic and once he gets in a College S&C program and gets coached up technically he's gonna take 1 of those Guard spots in 2022.
That is just impressive as it gets, if he can transfer those skills to the football field I almost feel sorry for the defenses that will face him....almost .
was he offered any wrestling scholarships to any reputable wrestling schools?
Good question. All of the clips of him seem to be against much smaller guys. Don't know enough about wrestling to evaluate his skills/techniques. What he does clearly works well at his current level. Would love to know how college/Olympic coaches evaluate him as a wrestler. I know he shows a "mean streak" which I assume will help him a lot on the gridiron.

At least according to one service, he's ranked 13th nationally in the heavyweight division, but I imagine he will move up in the final rankings based on his state championship run.
Interestingly, it's another Georgia kid, Chase Horne, a junior from West Laurens (AAAA), who's ranked #1 in the country. He's apparently committed to NC State (for wrestling, not football.)
