A tough North Georgia linebacker who knows how to hit behind his pads, Long plays fast, shows strong instincts against the run, and has no problem being physical. He takes on blocks, can fight them off, and shows impressive pursuit to the ball-carrier. One of the region’s top 2028 defenders, Long is fresh off a consistent sophomore season where he made 69 tackles. He made at least eight tackles in five games last year and should be even better as a junior in 2026. He flashed easy D1 potential last year and could be one of the top linebackers in North Georgia for the 2028 class with another strong season next fall.
