We are three weeks into the Georgia High School Football season and we’ve seen a lot of top performances so far. With many teams having played three games so far, some quarterbacks have already jumped out to impressive starts. 

It begs the question to which quarterback has had the hottest start to this 2023 season so far down in the Peach State? There’s so many different players to choose from when it comes to this category. 

We give you a list of 10 signal callers to choose from as we take a deeper dive into what players are off to best start in Georgia High School Football. 

Voting concludes September 14, 2023.

Editor’s note: Our corresponding poll is intended to be fun, and we do not set limits on how many times a fan can vote during the competition. This poll is specifically for fans to vote on the players that have been nominated and in no way discredits any other player that may not be mentioned in our poll.

Skyler Williams, North Murray: The 6-foot-3, 195-pound quarterback has lit up the airwaves as the passer has thrown for the state-lead in touchdowns with 910 yards and six touchdowns. 

Chase Dupree, Southwest: Right behind Williams when it comes to passing yardage is Dupree, who is not far off from the top. Dupree has completed 44-of-67 passes for 875 yards and six touchdowns. 

Antwan Hill Jr., Houston County: Talk about your touchdown to interception ratio. It's a lot to a little for Hill Jr., who has thrown for over 800 yards, 13 touchdowns and zero interceptions so far.
