<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>**The Prep Redzone Stock Up Showcase Tour is coming to many cities, including Atlanta, Georgia. The Atlanta, Georgia event will be held on January 10th for all players in the 2026-2029. College coaches will be in attendance, colleges will receive results, you will receive media coverage, and you will have a huge opportunity to make a name for yourself. Benefits include competing in front of college coaches, gaining coverage from our scouts, having the chance to rise in our rankings, having your scores sent to D1 schools that have registered to see them, and so much more. <a href="https://events.prepredzone.com/e/2134/register/stock-up-showcase-georgia">Click here to register</a>, and use code "SiskWinterPRZ" to get $10 off!**</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>South Georgia is filled with talent from top to bottom, but there are many running backs that have potential that could reach the sky. The Georgia high schools are talented and by nature there will be players that slip through the cracks, but here are five names that colleges should watch closely this upcoming season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2091219"],"_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-695342b399ee0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brown is very quick and has shown his ability to cut with full speed behind him. He has plenty of lower-body strength and solid balance. He has shown his capability of breaking down low and accelerating out of the cut. He isn't the biggest guy, so by nature, he is an elusive back who has true potential running routes in the slot or out of the backfield. He is dangerous, and he is one of the better players in the southern part of Georgia. He also has plenty of exciting traits that are improving. You have to imagine he will have an electric 2026.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1956760"],"_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-695342b399f54"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1956760' first='Khyran' last='White'] is a name to closely watch due to his ability to drive through defenders. He is a menace when it comes to contact, and likely someone that the defense regrets playing. It is also safe to say a defense probably needs to take medicine after hitting a hole against White, as he is probably the leading cause for headaches and body aches in his area. White is a solid frame with a lot of upper body strength, but his engine is his best trait. His engine never blows, and he has the chance to be even more special in his final season after eclipsing 1,000 yards.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2091224"],"_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-695342b399fab"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">White is simply built like a linebacker because he also plays linebacker. He has plenty of strength and is one of the bigger backs in the area, but he has solid running traits. He has a great motor, but his ability to drive his feet is solid. He plays like a traditional fullback in certain sets, but is someone who has a little bit of wiggle to him. I am a fan of him as a powerback, and he has potential in that area of his game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2087437"],"_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-695342b399fff"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Davis is one of the better players that I have watched in the 2029 class. He is the complete package, and is better than a large majority of the older guys across the nation. Davis has plenty of talent, and is a name that many will quickly learn due to his ability to break loose on runs. He has plenty of traits that makes him who he is overall, and he will be one of the names that make the most headlines in his class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1855228"],"_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-695342b39a051"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Malone is a valid runner with a lot of up-side. He has been one of the more productive backs in the southern part of Georgia. He is a patient back with a lot of wiggle on his cuts. He is slippery, and has some of the better broken tackle traits that you could want out of a running back his size. He is an elusive back with the possibility of being more consistent in the power back department with added weight. Easily a name who will make headlines in my honest opinion and evaluation.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
