The tough, instinctive defender plays hard, hits behind his pads, and was a terrific defender for an always sound and consistent Mill Creek defense. The 6-foot-2 220-pound multi-sport athlete is one of the region's top returning linebackers after a strong 2025 season where he made 40 tackles, 13 TFLs and four sacks to go along with one forced fumble. Look for this new Georgia State commit to have a giant senior season this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1841501"],"_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-6a3146e6d784e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">An outstanding EDGE defender who made his way to North Georgia from Canada, Casario is a big, athletic defender with outstanding length and burst at 6-foot-6 260-pounds. One of the highest-ranked defenders in that area of the state, Casario is a promising pass-rusher who flashed big-play ability in his six games last fall, making seven TFLs, three sacks and eight more quarterback pressures. After taking an official visit to Athens over the weekend the playmaking defender committed to the Bulldogs this week over Georgia Tech, Michigan State, among others. He's currently the No. 5 EDGE defender in the country for the 2027 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1623447"],"_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-6a31515d23763"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">An incredibly productive EDGE defender who made play after play for the state-champion Sandy Creek Patriots last fall, Austin showed this fall that he may be due for a bump in the next Prep Redzone rankings. After a tremendous 2025 season where he made 87 tackles 27 TFLs and an eye-opening 16 sacks, loads of offers came his way, and when it was time to make a commitment, the Atlanta-area defender gave his pledge to the Cincinnati Bearcats. He's currently ranked as the No. 11 EDGE defender in the state and will give the Bearcats a defender who fight will early plating time once he gets to campus next year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2128379"],"_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-6a31515d237c3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Once known as an "under the radar" lineman in Georgia, Toney has climbed his way into the top-15 of offensive line prospects in the state and recently made his college commitment to the Memphis Tigers. The big 6-foot-5 280-pound tackle from West Laurens (GA) is a small-town prospect who really shined last fall as a junior.The big, physical left tackle is outstanding in the fun game with enough length and mobility to protect the quarterback. It's clear the Tigers landed a big-time tackle ranked by Prep Redzone as the No. 89 overall prospect in the state for his class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2197309"],"_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-6a31515d23816"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A promising Atlanta-area defender who has decided to stay close to home, Nowell is an impressive run-stopping EDGE defender in McDonough to will make the short drive north to the city to play his college ball for the Georgia State Panthers. The 6-foot-3 225-pounder at Ola (GA) is fresh off a terrific junior season where he made 75 tackles while also helping on special teams. He plays hard, wraps up properly, and is one of the region's top returning defenders in the 2027 class. The Panthers are looking for underrated in-state talent and that's what they have now in Nowell.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
