Ousmane Kromah Ousmane Kromah 5'11" | 180 lbs | RB Lee County | 2025 State GA – Lee County
Ranked by Prep Redzone as the No. 1 running back across Georgia in the 2025 class, it’s easy to see why programs love everything about the big Lee County star. He’s big and powerful at 6-foot-1 210-pounds who can run through defenders with ease, but he’s also plenty fast. Whether he’s bowling through tackles or out-running defenders, Kromah is always a threat to make a play when he has the ball. He was a touchdown machine last year for Lee County, finding the endzone 20 times on the ground during the 2023 season as a junior. He’s one of the top junior running backs in the country and proved it over and over again this fall. In total, he rushed for 1,783 yards for an eye-opening 9.8 yards per carry. A consistent chain-mover and one of the more productive backs across Georgia, Kromah already looks like an SEC-caliber back. He holds offers from just about every major college program, and he still has one year left to go. Look for this dynamic back to have another giant season as a senior next year, hoping to lead a major Lee County program back to a state championship. He’s the leading returning rusher in the 6A class and will be tough to stop for any opposing defense next year.
Still one of the more underrated quarterbacks across Georgia for the 2025 class, Guest proved this fall that he’s one of the top dual-threat quarterbacks in the state. The Cherokee County signal caller is a dangerous runner who took off for 1,018 yards last fall with 13 touchdowns. He does a good job of reading the defense and taking off when there’s space to run. He does a nice job of running with balance and not going down at first contact. He shows quick feet, impressive burst, and has enough speed to out-run defenders down the field. He averaged an impressive 8.5 yards per carry along with 93 yards per game. More importantly, he led Creekview to another winning record, making plays with both his arm and his feet all season long. He rushed for over 130 yards in four different games with his biggest game coming over rival River Ridge where he rushed for an eye-opening 164 yards and three touchdowns. He might be a quarterback, but he’s still one of the top leading rushers coming back in the 6A class next year.
Lucas Farrington Lucas Farrington 5'10" | 180 lbs | ATH Woodward Academy | 2025 State GA – Woodward Academy
A speedy, shifty back out of Atlanta’s Woodward Academy, Farrington has a thick 5-foot-10 190-pound frame who knows how to run between the tackles. He brings plenty of speed to the table, but he’s also a physical runner who can pick up yards after initial contact. He does a good job of reading the hole and does a great job of bursting through it into the second level. He can make defenders miss in space while running with balance and behind his pads. He’s one of the top junior running backs in the Atlanta area and one of the leading returning running backs across the state in the 6A class. As a junior this past fall, Farrington ran for 1,016 yards and 11 touchdowns, averaging a respectable 6.3 yards per attempt. He rushed for over 100 yards six different times, showing his ability to take over games at the high school level. He has the tools capable of being a dependable D1-caliber running back somewhere at the next level.
