The Leaderboard: Two QBs closing in on 1,000 yards rushing
Georgia is almost certain to have its first 1,000-yard rusher tonight as Temple’s Cam Vaughn and Hebron Christian’s Gavin Hall are only 47 and 63 yards shy, respectively.
Both are three-year starting quarterbacks.
Vaughn, a senior, has rushed for 953 yards and 14 touchdowns on 106 carries (9.0 ypc) in five games this season. He has thrown for 2,861 yards in his career, but with younger receivers this season, he’s averaging only 11.6 attempts per game compared to 16.0 his sophomore and junior seasons. He’s now getting 21.2 carries instead of 7.4. At 6 feet, 3 inches and 210 pounds, he’s simply tough to bring down.
Temple coach Cory Nix, who was on Roswell’s staff when the Hornets had future NFL players Xavier McKinney and Malik Willis and several major Division I prospects, said Vaughn had Power 5-conference talent.
“He’s just been flying under the radar, and I’m doing my dangest to get him the publicity he needs,” Nix said. “For him to have only one offer [from Gardner-Webb], somebody is going to get a steal of a deal if they just do their homework. He’s a freak athlete, and he’s not even tapped his potential in the weight room.”
Hebron’s Hall, a junior, has rushed for 937 yards and 11 touchdowns on 75 carries (12.5 ypc). He’s thrown for 595 yards. He started as a freshman at George Walton Academy and came to Hebron last season, when he rushed for 1,144 yards. Hall has no offers, though he has more time as a class-of-2024 player. [See interview with his coach, Jonathan Gess, in today's Four Questions.]
Georgia’s receiving leader is Jaden Gibson of Rabun County with 661 yards. Gibson, who is committed to Georgia Southern, is now 643 yards from Stan Rome’s 49-year-old career record for receiving yards (4,477).
Georgia’s passing leader is Tate Morris of McIntosh with 1,565 yards.
