<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Which prospects in the 2025 class made a massive jump in their 2025 rankings debut?</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Let's break it all down...</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='787911' first='Josh' last='Petty'] – Fellowship Christian</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the top OL prospects not only in Georgia, but across the country in the 2025 class, Petty was not only added to the latest update, but made a massive jump as well, all the way to No. 6 overall in the peach-state. The Roswell, Georgia native out of Fellowship Christian has a lean, ideal frame at 6-foot-4 270-pounds who moves extremely well for his size. A future 5-star candidate, Petty will continue to fill out and put on solid weight and muscle over the next several years. He physically dominated opposing defenders with ease, but his footwork, balance, length, and toughness stand out as well. He's one of the very best across the South at offensive tackle with big hands and plenty of raw strength. His length allows him to latch on to defenders, and his lower body strength gives him the ability to drive them backwards and fully eliminate them from the play. He's tough, finishes his blocks, and plays until the whistle. He already holds offers from Georgia, Clemson, South Carolina, Virginia Tech, and many more. He has an extremely high ceiling and only scratching the surface of his potential.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='869036' first='Tae' last='Harris'] - DB - Cedartown</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the top 2025 DBs prospects not only in North Georgia, but across the state, Harris saw his recruitment take off earlier this summer and made a quick commitment to play for the powerful in-state Georgia Bulldogs. A hard-hitting defender with D1 size already at 6-foot-0 180-pounds, Harris' speed is why he's now known as one of the state's top defenders in the 2025 class. Not only does he bring 4.3 speed to the Cedartown defense, but he also brings toughness, work ethic, and competitiveness. He loves to work, loves to get better, and bound for a gigantic junior season this upcoming fall. In coverage, Harris reads the quarterback, reacts quickly, and knows how to deliver a big blow to the ball-carrier. As a sophomore last year, Harris made 59 tackles and two INTs. He runs a 10.73 in the 100-meter and is now ranked as the No. 12 overall prospect in Georgia for the 2025 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='787923' first='Isaiah' last='Gibson']<a href="https://prepredzone.com/player/isaiah-gibson/"></a>&nbsp;<a href="https://prepredzone.com/player/isaiah-gibson/"></a>&nbsp;– DL – Warner Robins</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A big-time defender in Middle Georgia who saw his stock take off earlier this spring and this summer, Gibson is an impact defensive lineman with plenty of size at 6-foot-5 250-pounds. An impressive pass-rusher who can also stop the run, Gibson still may be a little raw, but he's naturally athletic and extremely talented. His big, physical, quick, and still has his best football way ahead of him. He was an easy addition to the latest 2025 update, and after watching his sophomore film, we've now put him at the No. 30 prospect overall in the state. He holds impressive offers from Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, Oregon, North Carolina, among others. The big-time 2025 lineman made 42 tackles on the season with 12 of them coming behind the line of scrimmage. He also added six sacks and hurried the quarterback 24 times, proving to be one of the top overall pass-rushers in Georgia for his class. His stock is rising fast, and it's not slowing down anytime soon.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='898294' first='Darrell' last='Johnson'] - ATH - Dodge County</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An explosive playmaker who is dangerous any time he has the ball in his hands, Johnson is a threat to score no matter where he's lined up. The small-town athlete from Dodge County is one of the very best players in the area and saw his recruitment take off this summer, earning recent offers from Florida, Alabama, Auburn, among others. At 6-foot-1 200-pounds, Johnson is quick, elusive, powerful, and coming off a dynamic sophomore season where he showed the ability to take over games. He's shifty with the ability to cut on a dime and make defenders miss, but his physical style allows him to power through tackles as well. He shows great burst, acceleration and overall athleticism. He may have been a sophomore, but he was without a doubt one of the best players on the field at all times. He was added to the latest 2025 rankings, and now he's ranked as the No. 32 overall prospect in the state.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
