The shifty back shows quick feet and can physically hold his own even as a freshman. He's rushed for just under 500 yards through his first five games with two touchdowns. He's rushed for at least 100 yards in three games so far and has a chance to be the state's leading rusher this season in the 2029 class. He's a back to keep a close eye on moving forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1893991"],"_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-68cabd21dce0c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A metro-Atlanta quarterback in the rise in the 2029 class, Morgan may be young, but he's a really impressive athlete who has used his legs to make some really big plays on the ground to start his freshman season. He's still developing as a passer, but his mobility and ability to make plays with his legs has him towards the top of the rushing list right now in his class. The speedy dual-threat quarterback has run for 495 yards and four touchdowns through his first four games, averaging 9.3 yards per rush. He ran for 174 yards in the season opener and ran for another 187 yards two weeks ago. He's also rushed for at least one touchdown in three of his four games.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1893996"],"_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-68cabe777271f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A quick, crafty runner who can sneak through tight holes in the trenches, Jackson is a South Georgia running back who has really shined early on in his freshman season. He may be on the smaller side, but he brings impressive change of direction and burst when he gets into the open field. He runs hard for his size and has picked up 414 yards over the first five games of the season. It's been a tough season for Bainbridge, but it's clear they have a talented back who should only get better over time. His best game so far came against Tift County where he took off for 164 yards. He's a sleeper back to know who will be added to the next 2029 Prep Redzone rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1894091"],"_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-68cad31f06eec"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A private school dual-threat quarterback to know in the 2029 class, Wasson is a promising passer still developing, but his ability to run has caught defenses off guard. He's not the biggest or fastest guy, but he's a good athlete who runs well and can make defenders miss in the open field. The Bellville, Georgia native has run for 413 yards and three touchdowns this season, averaging 4.5 yards a carry. His best football is on the rise and he's been one of the more productive freshman quarterbacks in the area to start the 2025 season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1662080"],"_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-68cad31f06f65"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A speedy, playmaking two way athlete who can shine as a ball-carrier or in the secondary, Tucker is an above-average athlete who has been a really effective runner through the first few weeks of his freshman season. He shows quick feet, burst, and plenty of speed for someone his age. The Stockbridge freshman has run for 364 yards and six touchdowns through his first five games. His best game came against Eagle's Landing where he took off for 118 yards and three touchdowns on just nine carries. He's averaging an impressive 8.7 yards per carry and will be an easy addition to the next 2029 Prep Redzone rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
