<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A look at a few underclassmen to keep an eye on from 1st Rd upset teams. Subscribe to PrepRedZone for all the info on Statewide recruits from the P5 to the D3 level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>David Turner-DE/OG-'25 Camden Co </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Listed at 6'4 203 the OG/DE has a lot of upside potential as a next level player. Thin build with lots of room to add good weight. He is mobile from the guard position and is quick enough to pull and get a helmet on the linebacker. Aggressive from the DE position with decent tackling ability. Plays in an outstanding program at Camden Co under legendary Head Coach Jeff Herron. With another year in the weight room this guy will be one to watch next season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Davidmturner59/status/1661182330533208065","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Davidmturner59/status/1661182330533208065 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='348275' first='TJ' last='Wilcox']-QB-'25 Collins Hill</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6'2 dual threat QB not exactly under the radar as he has been picking up some FBS interest late in the season. He led Collins Hill to a 45-14 upset win over 1 seed North Cobb in the 1st Round. Wilcox has a good pocket presence and stays calm under pressure. Has the ability to make things happen with his legs but is better as a traditional pocket passer. Good arm strength that can throw lasers on a plain across the middle. Accurate with the deep ball. No doubt he will be highly recruited this off season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/TjWilcox12/status/1723756894517399812","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/TjWilcox12/status/1723756894517399812 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Jayaun Albert-RB-'25 Jenkins </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the top running backs in the Savannah Area in the 2025 class. Helped lead 4th seed Jenkins to a 14-13 win over 1 seed Arabia Mountain. A good North South runner with strong legs that makes him difficult to tackle in space. Good hands out of the backfield and is a threat in the slot. Has the speed to separate once he gets to the 2nd level. Won Jenkins OPOY award last year as a Sophomore and was named HM All Region in the toughest 5A Class in the State. We expect a big Senior year from this guy next Fall, </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Jayaun8/status/1716644894528164206","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Jayaun8/status/1716644894528164206 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='335434' first='Garrett' last='Landing']-OL-'24 Seminole Co</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Not a underclassmen or an off the radar guy but one I enjoyed watching and learning about. The 6'4 OL is committed to Kennesaw St. Moves great for a 295 guy. Aggressive blocker that likes to get after people. Led offensive line that produced a back-to-back 1000 yard rusher. Plays a little on the defensive side of the ball where he recovered two fumbles earlier this season v Miller Co. We be a early graduate this December and will be a big addition to the Owls squad next season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Landing_Garrett/status/1721266526970335363","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Landing_Garrett/status/1721266526970335363 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1077918' first='Josh' last='Love']-FS-'26 Cass</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Easy to get overlooked on a team that is loaded with D1 talent, Love is the next man up for the Colonels. Had an athletic interception verse Kell Friday night as the 4th Seed Colonels defeated the 1 seed Kell Longhorns on the road, their 2nd consecutive season winning as the 4th seed. Love is long and athletic at 6'1 and has outstanding ball skills. Good tackler in space that will only get better as he gains weight and strength over the next two seasons. He reads plays well and is not afraid of contact. Was named HM All Region this season in a Region that features multiple FBS Senior players. This offseason will be a big one for Love as he prepares to "be the man" next season for the Colonels. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/JoshLove___/status/1723808956336767091","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/JoshLove___/status/1723808956336767091 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed -->
