Who are they? Let’s take a look…
Malachi Toliver Malachi Toliver 6'6" | 300 lbs | OL Cartersville | 2024 State GA – OL – Cartersville
One of the top OL prospects across the state in the 2024 class, Toliver took a visit to Athens, Georgia over the weekend, and left the Classic City ready to make his commitment to the in-state Bulldogs. A promising tackle prospect with a frame to continue adding more mass and muscle, Toliver’s best football is still years ahead of him. A good athlete for an offensive lineman, Toliver brings some toughness and a great work ethic to the Cartersville offensive line, and he’ll do the same for the Georgia offense line starting in 2024. He’s still in need of some overall development, but the potential is there. He moves his feet well, finishes his blocks, and coming of a solid junior season last year for the Purple Hurricanes. He has the right mindset, he loves practice, and he’s going to get better and better over the next 12 months. The 6-foot-3 300-pounder chose the Bulldogs over offers from Auburn, Arkansas, among others. He’s an easy SEC lineman, and now he’s bound to play for the back-to-back national champions.
Clinton Richard Clinton Richard 6'4" | 280 lbs | OL Hiram | 2024 State GA – Holy Innocents Episcopal
One of the toughest offers to land in the country right now is one from Stanford. Not only do you have to be a great athlete, but you have to be a 5-star in the classroom as well. Of course, that’s exactly what Murray brings to the table, and the Atlanta native made the decision to commit to Stanford over offers from Georgia Tech, Boston College, among others. A quick ,versatile lineman with a promising 6-foot-2 270-pound frame, Murray is a game-wrecking lineman who can blow up any particular play in the backfield. One of the best defensive lineman in Atlanta for the 2024 class, Murray can line up on the EDGE or inside at the next level. He uses his hands well to shed blocks and get after the ball-carrier. He may not be the biggest or fastest defensive lineman in Georgia, but he was effective all season long against both the run and the pass. Murray is quick off the line and has a thick, compact frame that will translate well to the next level. He has plenty of raw strength and recently got to 335-pounds on the bench press. He’s a physical defender who knows how to hit and secure a sure tackle in the trenches. He was a major target for Stanford, and they were able to land his commitment this past weekend.
Josiah Davis – ATH – Berrien
An explosive South Georgia running back/safety who can make plays in all three phases of the game, Davis proved as a junior that he’s without a doubt one of the top overall athletes in the area. We’ve written before that Davis had easy SEC potential, and today the impressive 6-foot-1 180-pound athlete committed to play for the Florida Gators. Davis chose Florida on Monday over offers from Tennessee, Kentucky, Louisville, NC State, among others. He’s being recruited by the Gators to play safety, but can also help on the offensive side in an emergency situation. He made 70 tackles last season from the secondary with one sack and one INT. He’s a natural athlete with great instincts in coverage. He’s also a stout run defender who knows how to make a proper tackle. He’s one of the top two-way athletes in South Georgia right now, and he’ll make the Gators secondary better the second he gets on campus.
