Chandler Martin took off at The Opening, running one of the faster laser 40 times that I have seen from a linebacker in this area in a good bit, sans Owen Pappoe, who was a 5 star from the Class of 2018. “The offseason is going well,” Martin said. “I am up to 215 pounds
Terian Williams II Talks Offseason
Terian “TJ” Williams II started off last fall just trying to crack the varsity rotation at Parkview, which is a tall task for any freshman across the state, let alone on one of the more competitive teams in the largest classification in Georgia. The two-way player who shined as a QB throughout youth ball,
Double-D is a Turnover Machine
David Daniel is a 2021 recruit that is really emerging from his class as a safety to know for FBS colleges. At 6’2″, and 175 lbs., the Miami native has jumped onto the scene starting this year at Woodstock where’s he racked up his fair share of turnovers. On the 2018 season, Daniel has 3

Cousin Finds Groove at Quarterback
featured image credit – Fox5atlanta.com After going for 778 yards receiving as a junior on just 40 receptions and 9 touchdowns last season, there was certainly some high expectations heading into Iaan Cousin’s senior year, but a position change to quarterback has him adjusting on the fly. After an early season loss to Christian Heritage
Youngblood – A Linebacker You Can Count On
Over the last few years there has been one consistent factor standing in the middle of the ELCA defense, and that’s Johnathan Youngblood. The consistent force in the middle, always ready for the next play, always focused at the task at hand; he is the consummate high IQ linebacker that will lead a defense. It’s
Roberts’ Vision Will Open Up Opportunities
David Roberts out of Harrison high school (not to be confused with the manager for the Dodgers) has been putting together a solid season during his junior year. The 2020 back has excellent vision, and that was never better on display than a few weeks back against Osborne. What looked like a normal run play,
All the Way Holloway
Weaving his way in and out of the defense, and onto the Recruit Georgia top plays is Villa Rica senior Du’Shaunte Holloway. The 5’11”, and 190 lbs. athlete has really turned it on this year, but no doubt his Week 9 run was one of the nicest of his high school career. Holloway took the
Licquanta “Lockdown” Carter
A North Paulding class of 2020 cornerback who has been making waves this year has been Licquanta Carter. The athletic junior CB has made some pretty exciting plays so far, but on Week 9, he pulled off an interception that was easily one of toughest catches of the 2018 season. Playing against rival North Cobb
Creekside’s Percolating Perkinson
Laying in the recruiting weeds is Creekside’s exciting senior Julian Perkinson. The 2019 receiver is coming off a strong junior year where he was the most prominent pass-catcher for the Tribe, but was slowed down in the early season with a neck injury he suffered just prior to the 2018 season kicking off. Still, the
Taylor a True Student-Athlete
Bayard Taylor out of Columbus has some of the best grades of any interior lineman you can find in the state of Georgia. The seniors’ 4.484 GPA boldly stands out among his peers in the trenches, and on Week 9, his mental quickness to go along with his foot speed was put to the test.
Thomas Human Highlight Redux
Making the top 10 plays in the state of Georgia once again this season is Pace sophomore Jayden Thomas (Week 1 Top Play). The 2020 athlete finished with the #2 play, but instead of making a highlight reel catch, the 2021 athlete found himself on the defensive side of the ball. Heading back to Week
McConkey: Top Brass Receiver at North Murray
Poag to McConkey might be an all too familiar combination for opponents of North Murray this season. The 2020 wide receiver has quickly emerged as the top brass at receiver after the graduation of All-State receiver Connor Rice, who left a statistical vacuum after his 1000-yard senior season last fall. Enter Ladd McConkey, senior QB
Hard Working Deon Durden
Tattnall County’s Deon Durden made a catch for the ages last weekend. The explosive senior receiver had intense man coverage against Liberty County, but he was not to be denied. The defensive back practically threw his entire body at Durden, warranting a pass interference, but the senior reached out with one hand making a remarkable
Martin Ready to Finish Strong
There is no easy way to slice this humble pie, Ryan Martin’s senior season at Woodstock has been a bit of a disappointment. Just a week before the season started, the 2019 running back suffered a broken collarbone that left him sideline until last week’s game. The rust was knocked off quickly, and the four
DJ King – Chief of Versatility
Heading into this season there was an argument that DJ King was more of a college prospect on the hardwood than the gridiron, but the Sequoyah senior athlete has emerge as a talented two-way star for the Chiefs. King has played well on the offensive side of the football with over 200 all-purpose yards and
Keep an Eye on Shakari Denson
Shakari Denson is probably on more college coach’s radars than one might think after his strong freshman campaign, but to the general college recruiting world, he is not yet established name that the masses are following, just yet. It’s pretty clear that the sophomore out of Claxton can play the game. Just last week the
Johnson has a Thirst to get Better

Over the summer, the Hebron Christian student-athlete’s offseason highlight video titled “Free Smoke” went viral,
Meet Dual-Sport Athlete Dawson Coltran
Most photos are courtesy of Chrystal Moore Photography Dawson Coltran from Allatoona High School is quietly receiving offers to play both football and lacrosse in college. When most college coaches want kids to play two sports to stay active, it’s not always the case they will get offers in both sports, especially in two contact
Elijah Kempson: Getting Better Everyday
There were some exciting games last weekend around the state, but very few saw more points than Greenville vs Jordan. The game was up and down the field with both teams exchanging momentum swinging blows, but eventually Greenville ran away with a 62-49 final result. No play was more of a momentum swing than Elijah
Sure-handed Sutton Breaking Out Senior Year
Hayes Sutton is not a known commodity in the 2019 recruiting class just yet, but with his strong start to his senior year, there should be more colleges knocking down his door. The senior receiver has been a favorite target of Norcross QB Louis Williams in the early going. After having good games against both
Boatwright Takes Flight, Wins Top Play
Colquitt County junior Carter Boatwright has been concentrating on football for a few years now, even getting reps on the varsity as an underclassmen, but it was this fall that the multi-sport standout (baseball) decided to focus completely on the gridiron. We are only a few games through now, but it certainly seems to be
Brower Empowered for Big Senior Year
Peter Brower out of Ringgold started off his senior year with a bang making a ludicrous one-handed catch where the Heritage defender was basically bear-hugging the senior receiver from catching the football. The defender was defenseless from stopping the long arms of the 6’3″ senior receiver from corralling the football in, but unfortunately, the referee
High-flying Thomas is Human Highlight Reel
If you are trying to familiarize yourself with some of the top young recruits for the class of 2021 in the state of Georgia, then you should really look no further than Jayden Thomas. The Pace Academy wide receiver is a highlight play waiting to happen, and is already a top 25 ranked player on
Denmark WR Ze’Vian Capers Prides Himself on Being Student of the Game
Article written by site contributor Gabriel Stovall – follow him on Twitter @GabrielStovall1 ALPHARETTA, Ga. — When Ze’Vian Capers opens his mouth to discuss his role as the likely go-to wide receiver for a brand-spanking new football program in Forsyth County, he sounds like a human football lexicon. “When I was at South Forsyth last
