Back with rankings

I know its sad that I decide to take a few weeks off from blogging in the middle of football season but sometimes my mind just is not clear enough to sit down and write a blog, especially when it seems like viewership numbers were down. I have always stated that I do not write to attain numbers, but I also have to admit that numbers motivate me.
I would like to thank the many followers I have that have emailed, texted and come to me at games asking where the blog has been. I am glad that people like it and I ask you to please re-tweet it after you read it. Twitter readers are great. Facebook sharing is also great.
I am going with my top 25 or 26 high school players today and I thank every coach that makes sure that stats are available somewhere. It is difficult to compile a list like this without numbers to back this stuff up.
26) Elizabeth Rodenroth- Okay is she the 26th best offensive threat in Middle Georgia ? No she probably isn't. But I could not go any longer without mentioning her in a story. I have seen Howard four times this year and this young lady has gone from a decent high school kicker to a very good high school kicker who could probably kick for 90 percent of the teams in Middle Georgia. I saw her Friday handle extra points like it was nothing special (ask Southwest and Northeast about that) and she also added a 30 or so yard field goal like it was nothing special. She simply makes her kicks when given the chance and I love the way that she has been accepted by the Howard players. She fist bumps and head bangs with the best of them on the field.
25)Jeremiah Kelly-This young man is a top 5 talent but injuries have slowed him this year. He went out Friday night again with the same ankle that has been bothering him for weeks and he went back in but he looks to be about 75 percent maybe. Howard will not go far in the playoffs if they cant get this guy healthy.
24)Christian Palmer- Lets get one thing straight. Christian is a basketball  player first and will play college basketball. But what he has done this year is fairly impressive. The kid probably threw the ball less than a 100 times last year  and now he is pretty much doing that every three games. Stratford doesn't have many wins this year, but Palmer takes a beating every game and just keeps doing his job. The Eagles are inside the playoff bubble right now but expect Stratford and Christian Palmer to find a way to get in.
23)Victor DixonJr- Westside is 6-2 and the junior quarterback has been solid. He has thrown for 1269 yards and 10 touchdowns.
22)Cory Munson- He is the best kicker in these parts and has D1 talent. He is a pretty fair punter but he is a supreme kicker, hitting on 10-of-14 this year with a long of 53 yards.
21)Nolan Ussery- The Northeast quarterback is one of those dual threat guys and he is having a sold season with 870 yards passing and 635 yards rushing.
20)Jahlen Rutherford-The WRHS running back has been the consistent back that the Demons need to go along with their magical passing game.
19)Quintan Sewell- Howard is in the playoff picture largely because of this young man. If he is good the Huskies are good, if he struggles the Huskies cant score. He has put up over 1100 yards of offense this year but Howard has struggled just a bit because of injuries to key players. Sewell has kept things going  as well as he possibly can.
18)Malik Wooten-Just one of many weapons for Jones County. He has 30 catches this year for over 500 yards and he will only get better.
17)Jamal Marshall- Tattnall Square is a pretty good football team with Marshall on the field. Tattnall Square is a pretty average football team without him. He may be one of the five most explosive players in Middle Georgia but he has been unable to play an entire game this season because of an assortment of injuries. He played all the way against MDS and the Trojans knocked off an undefeated team.
16)Sebastian Verger- 1400 yards of offense for the Veterans quarterback. The Warhawks are 7-1 after not being so goof last year, or the year before, or the year before. Props to this young man for being a huge part of the turn around.
15)Jaydon Gibson- Peach County is always good, Peach County always has someone who can sling it, and this year Peach County has Jaydon Gibson who has 1144 yards through the air to go with 12 touchdowns.
14)Jaylon Barden- Westside has talent and Barden is one of many talents. He would probably on that most explosive list and I would love to see a Jaylon vs Jamal sprint race. Barden is having a solid year with 33 catches for 536 yards.
13)Max Rigby- Rigby is coming into his own as the Houston County quarterback and has 1453 yards through the air with  13 touchdowns.
12)Cyrus Zuell- Big strong running back who is having a great year for Veterans with 803 yards rushing and 11 touchdowns.
11)Lane Rucker- The talented Perry quarterback has led Perry to a winning record this year and will have to keep producing if his team is going to make the playoffs. Rucker has already thrown for 2260 yards and 14 touchdowns.
10)Jaydin Daniels- Northside has a huge game with Valdosta this weekend and Daniles will have to continue to do his thing. He is probably the number one dual threat quarterback in the area with 937 yards passinf and 792 yards rushing.
9)Davion Ross-Perry has a big time threat at receiver with this guy, who has hauled in 51 passes already this year for 751 yards and 8 touchdowns.
8)Jontavis Robertson- 801 yards catching passes for those Hounds with 9 touchdowns.
7)Dexter Williams-Mount de Sales lost a game but Williams is legit all the way with 1328 yards on the ground and 683 yards through the air to go with 21 touchdowns.
6)Tyshaun Freeman-He is a bruiser who has given Westside a running game, something the Seminoles don't always have. He has 926 yards on the ground with 10 touchdowns for a very good football team.
5)Quen Wilson- Mary Persons is good and Quen Wilson is very good and putting up the numbers to prove it. The running back has962 yards on the ground with 19 touchdowns.
4)Marcayll Jones- If you want to see video game numbers, well here we are. This 5'10 receiver has 63 catches for a huge, astounding 1420 yards, which gives him a chance at a 200 yard year if Warner Robins continues to win.
3)Hunter Costlow- The Jones County quarterback puts out more video game numbers  with 2001 yards of passing and 26 touchdowns.
2)JT Hartage- Ok no video game numbers here but just a sold quarterback who does everything. The Mary Persons quarterback is completing 71% of his passes and has thrown only 2 interceptions in 8 games. He has 15 touchdown passes and has thrown for 1711 yards.
1)Dylan Fromm-The las tof the Fromm brothers has a chance at a 4000 yard season and already has over 2800 yards to go with 31 touchdowns for Warner Robins.


We will be back with something else later this week
