Four Georgia, two Tech commitments on AAAAAA preseason all-state team
The final Georgia High School Football Daily/Atlanta Journal-Constitution preseason all-state team, for Class AAAAAA, has 17 players who have made their college choices, more than any other class.
Going to Georgia are Brandon Kublanow, Naim Mustafaa, Tray Matthews and J.J. Green.
Auburn has claims on Jarrad Davis, Trey Johnson and Carl Lawson.
Travis Custis and Shamire DeVine have picked Georgia Tech.
Clemson has Grayson stars Robert Nkemdiche and Wayne Gallman.
The rest are Octavius Jackson to Florida, Tiquan Lang to South Alabama, Dominique Threatt to South Florida, Eddie Printz to UCLA and Carlos Burse to Vanderbilt.
But the team isn’t about college prospects. Returning all-state players Alex Stoehr of North Gwinnett, Nathaniel Norwood of Lovejoy and Kasey Gaines of Grayson might not have as many offers, but they have a history of production that can’t be ignored.

Like I said, you’ve said three different times. I’ll put it like this to ya like this. Marvin Bracy was the fastest kid in the country last year and signed with fsu. He almost made the Olympic team in track and ran a 4.3. And y’all have two of them. Props to Lowndes. And yes, we have the three D1 kids, along with 12 others. If I only knew as much as you. Same guy that said we had one good year but made it farther than Lowndes the last 3 years.

Do you honestly think we care what you or other Lowndes fans think of our coach or our team? We will always cheer for Lowndes when y’all play out of region games just like we will anybody else in our region. You know nothing about Propst besides some BS you’ve read on the Internet. If you wanna be a bi*ch about not being on top anymore then so be it, but all you’re doing is making yourself look worse than you already have. Propst brought in two players that were cleared by the GHSA and you call him a cheat, why? All while everyone else does including Lowndes, but yet Rush is the only one that cheats. And regardless of where you QB came from, he still played at a different HS last year. Good evening to you sir

the hogs are good at choking…….yea we have got beat in the playoffs a few times but ol coach mac has 3 titles to brag about also…..

region 1- 6a is alot tougher than alabama lol. He has ZERO titles from this region. Heck coach Mac has a title from FLA in Madison but we aint talkin bout that. We talkin about from region 1 6a. 3 titles. Threein four years. Thats a dynasty buddy. So quit talkin about 5 titles he had else where please. Thank you.

Colquitt has always had the talent to hang w anybody, it’s just the matter of finding a competent coach. Keep living in the past guys. We’ve made a title game and two other final fours the last three years with Lowndes no where to be seen. Again, there’s not a fan in this state that would choose Lowndes program over Colquitt right now.

yea there are several fans who would………yall have 0 titles …….we have made the playoffs every every year propst has been your coach…….yall have made it only 3 …..the goal is to win the title….and yall havent done that…..
and yall have not always had the talent…….colquitt has had more talent the last 3 years than they had ever had 5 to 7 years prior

lowndes has not been what we were during the 04-09 run……..but we arent far from it………the body of work lowndes has put in over the last decade is far more impressive than colquitts……
colquitt fan…….come back in about 7 more years………lets see how many titles yall have……lowndes also has 6 or 7 region titles under coach mac to go with those titles……long way to go bud……sorry

No doubt y’all had a fantastic run, Camden has had some good ones. Colquit did when we had Hughes, as did Valdosta. Point is, this is a talent rich area where many teams can be great w coaching. But if you can’t give Propst and Colquitt props on the playoff run they’ve had the last few years then you’re just a blind homer. We’ve had more road playoff victories the last few seasons than most teams in their history. It took Propst I believe one 6-4 season after a 2-8 season to have his team in the final four.

colquitt fan……….colquitt is a good football program..i am not denying that……but i dont like your coach……its not bc he doesnt know the game of football……but not many people like a smart a** and he is very mouthy……there is not arguing that yall have won some playoff games the last few years and made it deep in the playoffs……..hey …….i tip my hat to my vikings last year for going on the road tand beating a stpehenson team loaded with d 1 talent on both sides of the ball…….holding mike davis (at florida now) to under 100 yds rushing and only allowing stephenson to cross the 50 1 time all night………this was the same stephenson team that put up 49 on mlk the week before and loss 50-49…….mlk also beat valdosta…something yall didnt do……last year was a weir year…we spanked coffee………they beat valdosta….valdosta beat us in the last min…….then we lossed to yall and yall loss to valdosta…….this region is tougher now than ever bc you guys are no longer a doormat in this region nor is valdosta and tift and coffee will be better soon also bc of the new coahces they have and now we have camden…look out
lowndes has pretty much owned the last deaced in this region…….7 region titles….and 3 state titles……
you got some work to do colquitt fan……..dont be mouthing off like your coach and we all can get along

You calling someone mouthy is funny. Speaking of catching up, maybe one day Lowndes will the be the best team from their county. About 20 more titles and you’ll catch up with Valdosta

valdosta is the most winningist high school football team in the country and i am proud for them…..i have lived in valdosta/lowndes county all my life……….after all ESPN didnt call us”TITLETOWN” for no reason……….and its the home of Winnersville also!!!!!!

ok…….i have been on here enough without saying anything……….i listen to bksmith14…..nghso9…fred…battleaxekid(lol)……squirrel….and all the colquitt supporters and i sit back and analyze it all……..BKSMITH14…..he needs to be a football talk show host..i get tickled listening to this guy….he is right a lot of the time but he is funny in how he comes back to most all you who dish it out on him………..LOL…..
i will say this……..The lowndes vikings have a lot of speed……….every back they have runs the 40 4.6 or less………and burgam and lang are consisten 4.5 guys who have run it under 4.4 once each…..accoriding to several sources……….They have one of the best Lb in the state in #17 tre jackson …..he is prob second behing colquitt john gray…now #14……Lowndes secondary has a good bit of experience also and #2 lang i will be covering hill when colquitt plays them i can assure you…that will be a matchup to watch….
Lowndes goes 8-2…gets the #2 or # 3 seed
Valdosta…….arguably going to have the best offense ion the region this year as they return almost the entire offense from last year….lost almost everyone on defense……ware county had about 120 yds rushing against them……but they held them to 10 points granted ware is nowhere near the team they were last year……Valdosta will be good…..how good? time will tell
i say the cats go 8-2 or 7-3 and they either get the #2 or # 3 seed as well
Camden county…….with brice ramsey and jj green returning……..look out……i see these guys battliig it out with colquitt for the region title…….although Lowndes and valdosta may have something to say abuout it…….but for now i am going with these 2..camden lost a lot also so they will have to reload which they do pretty well most of the time
Colquitt county…….Ol controversial coach prospt will have these boys ready by playoff time…….they have lost a lot and they have several guys hobbling around right now with hannging injuries and one os their best playmaker (hill…plnatr warts on foot..ouch) and ward south florida cb committ i believe has a hip flexor injury……and they have lost a kew offenseve lineman and dalton dillon has been hurt…..with that said they will be good and contend for the region again like last year
tift and coffee……….will be much improved and will have the potential to pull an upset if taken lightly
brunswick……..good luck…you going to need it
X factor in this region that could be huge………Valdosta gets the to play colquitt……camden and lowndes at death valley……..

Actually our team is kinda young. While we do lose those guys, we still have a lot. The people we lose have more than capable back ups that we bring back. Propst said we have upwards to 15 D1 players on our roster. We’ll have another senior QB in Daniel Mobley who played some last year and will see some action this year. Colquitt isn’t going anywhere for a while. The only spot that might concern is WR, but we always have somebody step up there.

colquitt will no be going anywhere……..but yall will not be as good next year…….like i said…….and i agree with footballguru…..yall had your best shot last year and you still have enough left to make anothr run…….
mobley is not as good as cole….although he is solid……no doubt…….
