Score 44 Week 4

The Score 44 is a fluid list that aims to honor the best forty-four seniors in Georgia high school football on a week-to-week basis. These players are some of the most highly-recruited players in the state as well as some of the best players that may not get to play at the next level. We try and create a blend of the two categories. This week Austin Hardin of Marist makes the cut as the future Florida Gator prepares for the team his leg beat last year on a 58-yard game-winning kick. Hardin is not just one of the best kickers in the state of Georgia; he has been rated as the best kicker in the country according to one recruiting service. Meanwhile Darius English of McEachern also makes the list after the future South Carolina Gamecock blocked a punt and recovered for a score in last week’s Indians’ win. Buford is a team that has three players on the list and rightfully could have at least three more. The Wolves are loaded and several more could make the list at some point this season. Lastly it was tough to exclude Jonquel Dawson of ML King from the list. I just didn’t have the room for him this week. I debated taking Greyson Lambert off for Dawson but decided that Lambert stays this week.
