Thomas Davis, Demaryius Thomas, Frank Broyles, Quincy Carter, Jeff Saturday, Eric Berry, Calvin Johnson, David Pollack, Champ Bailey, Hines Ward, Charlie Ward and Herschel Walker are a few of the names who were inducted in previous classes.
Kirby Smart also joins his offensive coordinator, Mike Bobo, in the Georgia High School Football Hall of Fame. Bobo was a standout quarterback at Thomasville High School before playing at Georgia in college. He was inducted in 2023.
This year’s class will be inducted on Oct. 25.
