One of the more productive 2026 running backs across South Georgia, Cole is a power runner with above-average speed who consistently found the end-zone all season long. He runs hard, breaks a lot of tackles, and is fresh off a really impressive regular season and has run for close to 300 yards over his last two games with four touchdowns. In total, Cole has run for 805 yards and 15 touchdowns this season. His consistency, size, and dependability around the goal-line made it an easy decision to add him to the latest update. He’s now ranked as the No. 49 RB prospect in the state for the 2026 class.

Another 2026 running back flying under the radar, Cole is a Thomasville native who has been a touchdown machine through the first six games of the season. Leading the Bulldogs to a 5-1 record, Cole has rushed for an impressive 485 yards and 10 touchdowns. He’s rushed for at least two touchdowns in five of his six games and has hit the 100-yard mark twice so far. He shows good vision, burst, and the ability to pick up big yards after first contact. He plays hard, runs behind his pads, and can score any time he has the ball. He’s also a weapon on special teams and is hoping to lead Thomasville to a deep playoff run in his final season.

One of the top returning running backs in South Georgia, Cole is a flashy back who can consistently break tackles and score from anywhere on the field.
