Jayce Johnson, Valdosta (GA) Lowdnes
The Skinny: The Texas A&M commitment heads into his third and final season as the starter for the Lowndes Vikings. With his college commitment seemingly firm going into the 2026 season, the quarterback can focus on trying to lead the team to states as they feature another talented roster of players. In Johnson’s two years as a starter at Lowndes, the passer has completed 209 passes for 2,985 yards and 27 touchdowns to only seven picks.
Kharim Hughley, Gainesville (GA)
The Skinny: The 2027 four-star Clemson commitment led Gainesville during the 2025 season to a huge victory over Milton and had the Red Elephants as viable contenders for the 5A state championship, falling to Thomas County Central. Hughley finished last season completing 166 of 271 passes for 2,456 yards and 33 touchdowns. The junior also was effective running the ball for Red Elephants’ offense, rushing for 379 yards and finding pay dirt eight times.
