We’re seeing offers fly in every day and multiple prospects have seen their stock rise in a big way over the last two weeks.
Nathan Efobi Nathan Efobi 6'4" | 285 lbs | DL South Forsyth | 2023 State GA – DL – South Forsyth
One of the top 2023 defensive line prospects in the state, the 6-foot-3 285-pounder was tough to handle this season for opposing offensive linemen. He was double-teamed often but has still managed to make a giant impact and lead a defense a strong South Forsyth defense all season. He’s strong at the point of attack and can closes those running lanes in a hurry. He’s big, active, and he’s only getting better. He’s using his hands better and becoming more fundamentally and technically sound the more he plays. His best football is ahead of him, and that’s a very good thing for the South Forsyth in 2022. Efobi recently earned an offers from Louisville and East Carolina and Miami. They won’t be the last offers he reels in soon.
After an amazing talk with @DeRailSims I am blessed to receive a scholarship from the University of Louisville.#L1C4

Whit Weeks – Oconee County
One of the top athletes in the Athens area, Weeks capped off great junior season where he’s made an impact in all three phases of the game. He’s an outstanding linebacker who has made a combined 134 total tackles during the season. He’s instinctive, he strikes, and he’s one of the smartest players on the field. He gets into the backfield in a hurry and uses his hands well to get off blocks. He’s got good size at 6-foot-2 205-pounds. He plays hard, he’s tough, he’s physical, and he lead a very strong Oconee County defense all season. There aren’t many linebackers who have the same size, instincts, toughness, and big-play ability like Weeks, and it’s led to an offer from the Georgia Bulldogs and LSU Tigers.

Noah Dixon – DB – Troup County
One of the top young defenders in West Georgia, the Troup County defensive back is coming off a fantastic sophomore season where he made plays on both sides of the ball. He has plenty of length and athleticism in his 6-foot-2 175-pound frame and showed great ball skills all season. He covers a lot of ground in the secondary and knows how to play the ball. He has reliable hands on offense with enough speed and quickness to take off for big yards after thee catch. He’s solid against the run and knows how to strike the ball-carrier and drive him backwards. He has the size, instincts, and natural ability to play at the D1 level and he recently earned an offer from the in-state Georgia Bulldogs. Look for other schools to jump on board with an offer sooner than later.
Truly blessed to receive an offer from The University of Georgia 🐶🔴 @DellMcGee @tanner_glisson @Trouprecruits @Prather95 @CoachMHealy pic.twitter.com/5CuwiBsgtR

Nakai Poole – WR – Norcross
A breakout receiver in Gwinnett County last season, Poole is a big-play wideout who really excels after the catch. He plays against tough defensive backs every week and Poole proved to be one of the best pass-catchers in the region, catching 40 passes for 703 yards and 11 touchdowns. He has a true nose for the end-zone and made a lot of defensive backs look silly down the field this year. His stock is rising by the day, and he’s recently earned offers from Ole Miss and Boston College.
