No doubt, this season has been nothing short of great for Jenkins County and ZZ Wilson. The program has been ranked for most of the season and among the few undefeated teams still in Class A DII. The dynamic playmaking of Wilson has been amazing for the program, and just last week he was back
No doubt, each year the wide receiver position in the state is stacked with sleepers who go well into their senior year under the radar, but king among those receivers has to be Arabia Mountain’s Alex Richard. The 6’2″ 195 lbs. senior has been a standout in 2023 for the 7-1 team in 5A. Richard
One of the surprises of Week 10, at least for us, was the realization of speedy Campbell sophomore Nicholas Buggs. The shifty receiver caught a relatively short pass on the left sideline against Pebblebrook, and promptly hit the gas exploding across the field. The pursuit was left dismayed as he raced down the right sideline
Friday is already here, so excuse our late recap of Jabari Zanders’ great performance from last Friday against Wheeler County. With the team down 29-13 and only 5 minutes left in the game, Telfair County was able to pull off the amazing comebacker with Zanders scoring the go-ahead touchdown with 35 seconds remaining.

Alpharetta’s Ayk Dedeoglu is playing excellent football during his senior year. The Raiders are 5-3 on the season and starting to play their best football on the back half of their schedule.

Many would consider last Friday’s game for Athens Academy against Providence Christian to be a statement game. Athens Academy thoroughly beat down their once-undefeated opponent by the tune of 51-19, and perhaps no play encapsulates the one-sided nature of the matchup than freshman Keyon Standifer’s kick return. The standout from the class of ’27 handled
We don’t typically see a prospect make the top 10 plays twice in a season, let alone a sophomore, but Reed Ezell has done just that. The Cartersville defensive back once again made a highlight reel interception, but this time in the clutch. With his team up 21-14 in overtime against Cass, all they needed
Toombs County junior TJ Stanley had one of the more impressive games of Week 8.

Stanley was efficient throwing

Fellowship’s Josh Milhollin has been playing excellent football his senior year with 18 catches, 393 all-purpose yards, and 4 touchdowns. The nice start to the season for the Army commit highlights an excellent career where Milhollin has been among the best playmakers in the lower classifications since his sophomore year. Last week against Rabun County,
Gainesville is at the top of 6A with a 6-0 start to the year. Part of their success has been their impressive line of scrimmage on both sides of the football, and junior center Wil Turner is among many who stand out. Turner is a bashing center who does a good job with his hand
Heritage senior Dion Dean had one of the most impressive games of the season last week against Loganville where he amounted to 350 all-purpose yards and 5 touchdowns. The wide receiver was unstoppable through the air totalling 250 yards on 13 catches and was named a standout on the website. Soon after Dean was voted
Last week, Zachary Manning out of Druid Hill had some last-minute heroics to get his team into overtime and eventually pull off a 21-20 win over SE Whitfield.

North Forsyth might have themselves one of the best QB to WR connections in the state with juniors Elijah Seaney and Brady Holbrook. For the 606 yards and 7 touchdowns that Seaney has thrown for this season, Holbrook has accounted for 403 of those yards and over half the scores with 4. Last week, the
Keundris Williams is a Harlem wide receiver who is having a statement season. His big-time playmaking knows no boundaries, and just last week in a big win against Aquinas, Williams made an important kick return to take back momentum. With the game about halfway through, Williams took a kickoff down the right sideline blowing
David Postell might not literally dunk on defenders as the ‘posterizing’ title might suggest, but I would argue that the senior did the football equivalent last week to his rival South Paulding. The East Paudling senior sent guys flying in their big win last week and was announced to our Bully Squad for Week 5.
Savannah Christian’s Kenry Wall is playing outstanding this year. The junior has 16 carries for 222 yards and 3 rushing touchdowns while also catching 210 yards on 10 receptions and an additional 3 more scores through the air.
