The Glynn Academy Red Terrors are coming off of a state semi-final appearance in a year that most thought the Terrors would be rebuilding.

Instead, this senior class almost led Glynn to a state title and will go down as the most successful senior class in Glynn Academy history.

Signing Day has come and gone and the Terrors will have some of that senior class take their talents to the next level.

Here is a run down of the Glynn Academy signing class.

Sean Bravo: Bravo came in and played one year for the Terrors and made a huge impact on the field for Glynn, especially in the playoffs. Bravo signed a letter of intent to Eastern Arizona.

Caine Crews: In my opinion, Crews is one of the best all-around players to have ever played at Glynn. He was a shut down DB early in his Glynn career and then transitioned to running back his senior year. Crews still played some DB when it was necessary. Crews committed to Lenoir-Rhyne University.

Marvin Dallas: Dallas has NFL potential if a few things go his way. There is no way the Terrors would have made the state semi-finals without Marvin Dallas’s play in the playoffs. Dallas took the opposing team’s best WR out of the game plan every Friday night, even the guys that had signed with big name colleges. Dallas will attend Georgia Military College.

Hunter Hall: There has never been a better defensive player at Glynn Academy than Hunter Hall. Hall also has NFL talent if he is given a fair look due being a little undersized for a linebacker but no one I have ever seen plays the position better. Hall committed to West Georgia.

Cameron McClellan: McClellan is a big, tough linebacker that came over to the Terrors from Frederica and proved to be a monster in the middle for Glynn when healthy. McClellan suffered a toe injury at the beginning of the season and was finally able to come back and was a beast for Glynn at LB. However, only a few games later he ended up tearing his ACL, which put him out for the year. This is a kid you root for; great kid, great family, and a desire to play football at the next level no matter the odds. McClellan will continue his football career, signing with Florida Tech.

There will likely be several other players for the Terrors that will sign late but one thing is for sure, Glynn County is finally getting the recognition it deserves for being a talent hot bed.

Local Star Wars

Signing day is quickly approaching and several of Glynn County’s football players are looking for a college home.

These student athletes are taking official visits (visits paid for by the college football program) and unofficial visits (prospect pays for visit out of their own pocket).

Glynn County has been a major hotspot for college coaches this past week. There have been over 30 colleges visit the 3 high schools in Glynn County. Brunswick High, Frederica Academy, and Glynn Academy have seen some of the biggest names in their hallways this week.

The most notable being the head coach of the Georgia Bulldogs, Kirby Smart. Glynn County is Dawg country and you could not log onto any social media platform and not see a picture with Kirby Smart with a Glynn County resident.

Coach Pender’s Pirates have seen a lot of traffic as of late. The Pirates have one the largest senior classes in the school’s history.

That senior class is loaded with talent. Jaylen Jackson is committed to Georgia Tech and Kam Futch is committed to West Georgia.

Several other prospects are being heavily recruited as well. Djay Whitfield is coming off his official visit from Albany State. Aubrey Williams recently visited Rice University and has interest from other schools as well. Sharrod Frazier has several division 1 offers as well. He should start traveling soon for his official visits.

Brunswick High also has several others who could potentially go play college football next year.

Tevin Small, Jalen King, Alonzo Brown, Rudy Nixon, Ty Hinson, and John Cano should all suit up for a college football team next year.

Warren McClendon will be one of the biggest recruits in South Georgia next year. He has several Power 5 conference offers and he is completely open to all schools at this point in his recruiting process.

Glynn Academy Coach Rocky Hidalgo has also had a lot of visitors. Last year Glynn was able to send Deejay Dallas and Zalonte Hillary to the University of Miami.

Dallas made an immediate impact with the Hurricanes. Miami coaches expect Hillary to make an even bigger impact next year upfront.

Coach Rocky still has a lot of talent on his team that college coaches are coming by to see. Randon Jernigan was highly recruited but decided to sign and play baseball at the University of Georgia.

Marvin Dallas is a long and athletic corner that college coaches love on the outside. He is receiving a lot of attention from several schools.

Dynamic running back, Caine Crews, is a stud running back that will be a major contributor for whatever school he decides to suit up for.

Hunter Hall might be the most underrated recruit in South Georgia. This four-year starter has all the tools that will make him a successful college linebacker. All he needs is a chance.

Frederica Academy has been busy as well. The Knights have 3 seniors who are being recruited to potentially play football in college.

Santana Clark received and offer from the prestigious Rhodes College. He will travel next weekend to Memphis to check out the campus.

Tyler Pierce has received some attention from D3 and NAIA schools.

John Mitchell Brock could possibly kick at the next level of he chooses. There are some D3 schools that are interested in his services.

Jashawn Sheffield and Jaylin Simpson are going into their last year at Frederica. Power 5 schools have been coming in packs to check on this duo.

The 2019 class also has another potential D1 player. Harry Veal has found his way on the radar of college coaches as well. Veal finished the season with 120+ tackles and this has not gone unnoticed by college coaches.
