Georgia produces enough high-level football talent to fill recruiting boards across the country, so narrowing the state’s senior class down to 11 players is no small distinction.
Clemsonfootball running back commit Gary Walker made that elite group Wednesday when the Atlanta Journal-Constitution named him to its 2026 Super 11. The annual honor has recognized Georgia’s top 11 senior football players since 1985, with a list of past selections that includes Charlie Ward, Eric Berry and Travis Hunter.
Walker earned his place after a dominant junior season at Creekside High School. The four-star prospect rushed for 1,669 yards and 20 touchdowns while helping the Seminoles finish 15-0 and capture the Georgia Class 4A state championship.
Walker delivered one more productive performance in the championship game for Creekside, rushing for 149 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries during Creekside’s 42-39 victory over Benedictine.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution also named him an all-state selection and a first-team All-Southside player following the season.
Walker is only the fourth player from Creekside to make the list, joining Josh Holsey, Jayson Stanley, and former Tennessee and NFL safety Eric Berry.
Walker will now enter his senior season with another major distinction attached to his name, and Clemson fans will have one of Georgia’s most accomplished running backs to follow throughout the fall.
