Harris caught only 19 passes this year, but made them all county, taking them for 378 yards and five touchdowns, averaging an outstanding 20 yards per catch. He shows good hands and should see a lot more passes come his way as a senior. Look for him to see a new Prep Redzone ranking next month as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1042322"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67b9c3bbb1b26"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the many talented North Oconee wideouts who helped lead the Titans to a state championship last season, Goolsby is one of the fastest receivers in the area who can line up all over the field. He can play on the perimeter, in the slot, or make plays running the ball out of the backfield. No matter where's he's lined up, Goolsby has the ability to make a big play any time he has the ball. He gets open, he's a weapon down the field, and shows consistent hands when reeling in the ball. He's one of the more underrated wideouts across the state bound for a giant senior season in 2025.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1557970"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67b9c3bbb1bfb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top sleeper wideouts in the metro-Atlanta area, Stair brings plenty of speed to the table and knows how to run a route that allows him to get easy separation from defenders. He was tough to stop for opposing defensive backs all season long as he caught 44 passes for 922 yards and 10 touchdowns. He brings a promising 6-foot-2 175-pound frame and knows how to track the ball in the air, haul it in, and take off down the field. He flashes D1-caliber talent and is one of the top returning receivers in the Sandy Springs area. He's threat to score from anywhere on the field, and you can expect him to score a lot next fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1577587"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67b9c3bbb1c7f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Still one of the more slept-on wide receivers across Gwinnett County, this Dacula standout is a natural athlete who can make big plays in multiple different ways. He's a natural pass-catcher with a shifty style of play, eluding defenders after the catch and stretching the field vertically. He was one of the more productive receivers in the area last fall as a junior, catching 41 passes for 802 yards and 10 touchdowns in 11 games. He was also a reliable weapon as a kick returner on special teams due to his quickness, change of direction, and above-average speed. He's an underrated receiver to know in Gwinnett County for the 2025 season later this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1628132"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67b9c3bbb1cec"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the fastest players in the Savannah area, Hockman is a dynamic two-way standout who showed breakaway speed on offense to go along with impressive ball skills, balance, and the knack for making big plays down the field. He brings easy D1-caliber speed and can absolutely play somewhere at the next level. He was a consistently weapon in the passing game all year long as he caught 35 passes for 771 yards and seven touchdowns. He was an easy addition to the upcoming 2026 Prep Redzone update and should have a giant season coming this fall as a senior.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
