Jeremiah Holloman, Sophomore

Of all the players that are on this list, Holloman has the most potential to become a true number one outside receiver. Standing at 6ft2 and already built like a 25-year-old, Holloman looks like a natural outside receiver. He certainly looked like one last G-day where he turned 3 catches for 77 yards and 1 touchdown.

Now, it should be remembered that Georgia was seriously lacking in cornerbacks last spring. Unlike this season, they had walkon’s starting at cornerback on G-day. It’s therefore not entirely surprising that Holloman dominated his opponents. Physically, he was just a lot more talented than the guys he went up against.

Still, Holloman has everything coaches look for from a receiver. He’s explosive and has tremendous speed. He battled a few injuries last year and that held him back. This spring gives him an excellent chance to step up and win that third starting spot.

He’s going to go up against our next player, who has a year on him in terms of experience. But Holloman is a better athlete and is someone to keep an eye on this spring. If he breaks out again on G-day, that could suggest that he’s in for a big 2018.
