Now, the promising 6-foot-6 250-pound EDGE defender from Valdosta has flipped his commitment to the Alabama Crimson Tide. As a prospect, Howard's size stands out immediately and his best football is still years ahead of him. As a senior this season, ranked by Prep Redzone as the No. 61 prospect in the state, Howard has made 28 tackles, six TFLs and three sacks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1091385"],"_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-68f651a53d04b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top young prospects across the state, Wall is a playmaking athlete who has shined on both sides of the ball this season for John Milledge Academy. He's a tackling machine at linebacker as he's made 71 tackles with eight TFLs and five sacks. As a pass-catching tight end, the playmaking sophomore has caught 31 passes for 551 yards and four touchdowns. His father played for the in-state Georgia Bulldogs over 20 years ago, and now [player_tooltip player_id='1091385' first='Asa' last='Wall'] will do the same, committing to the Bulldogs over the weekend during a visit to Athens. He's currently ranked by Prep Redzone as the No. 13 overall prospect in the state for the 2028 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1539181"],"_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-68f651a53d0b6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the state's top running backs in the 2027 class has already made his college commitment. [player_tooltip player_id='1539181' first='Javarris' last='Warner'], a speedy back out of Troup County and one of the best overall running backs in West Georgia, committed to the Cincinnati Bearcats today over programs like Florida State, Central Florida, Vanderbilt, among others. He's rushed for 613 yards and seven touchdowns today in eight games, averaging an impressive 7.7 yards per carry. He's hit the 100-yard mark four times this season and has the Tigers rolling with a 8-0 record. He's currently ranked as the No. 11 running back prospect in Georgia for his class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1969491"],"_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-68f651a53d11c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A two-way athlete in West Georgia who has been a consistent contributor on both sides of the ball, Hadley is having a strong senior season and recently made his college commitment to the Sewanee Tigers. Defensively, Hadley plays hard and finds his way to the ball-carrier, securing 24 tackles, four TFLs, and one blocked kick. He's one of the top defensive backs in the region who has found a place to play at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1969510"],"_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-68f651a53d182"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A mean, physical right tackle for Jonesboro, Barnes is a lean tackle who moves well at 6-foot-4 270-pounds. He plays hard, blocks until the whistle and is one of the top offensive line prospects in the region. He's a consistent pass-protector who has no problem opening up running lanes on the right side of the line. He's good enough to play at the next level and made his commitment over the weekend to play for the West Georgia Wolves. Barnes can expect to see a new ranking come his way in the next 2026 Prep Redzone update after a strong start to his senior season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
