<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Which peach-state prospects made their college commitments this week?</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Redzone has all the details...</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='364178' first='Dylan' last='Raiola'] - QB - Buford</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ranked as the No. 1 overall prospect in Georgia and one of the very best players across the peach state, Raiola is an elite quarterback prospect with eye-opening arm talent. He's a big young man at 6-foot-3 220-pounds who can really launch the ball down the field. He transferred to Buford from Arizona this year, and while he didn't lead the Wolves to a state title, his talent was on full display all season long. The big-time gunslinger committed to the Georgia Bulldogs back in May, but with two days left before Signing Day, the Nebraska legacy decided to flip his commitment to the Cornhuskers, giving this historical program a truly elite quarterback who help build the program. A a senior this past fall, leading the Wolves to a deep 7A playoff run, Raiola threw for 2,666 yards and 34 touchdowns with just one INT. He's a special prospect with a very bright future at Nebraska.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Tywon Christopher - Thomas County Central</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A playmaking defender with versatility who can play safety or outside linebacker, Christopher is an under the radar defender in South Georgia who earned an offer from the in-state Kennesaw State Owls last week, and with Signing Day just two days away, Christopher jumped at the opportunity and committed to the Owls this week. The 6-foot-0 200-pounder is a strong tackler with good instincts and the ability to create a turnover. As a senior this past fall, Christopher made 78 tackles, 14 TFLs, one INT and one forced fumble. He helped lead Thomas County Central to a big 6A state championship this past fall due to his toughness, veteran leadership, and sound play defensively. He earned an opportunity to play at the next level, and the in-state Owls gave him that opportunity. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='410503' first='Emaree' last='Winston'] – Calhoun</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A physical tight end out of Calhoun who can really help in the passing game, Winston is a playmaking prospect with great size and ball skills at 6-foot-3 230-pounds.
