Size doesnt matter from Holston
Not too many 5-foot-9, 205-pound players lead their teams in sacks. But Jeffersonville (Ga.) Twiggs County athlete Octavious Holston isn’t your typical player. With his size, he can project at a number of different positions, but it’s his play-making ability that allows him to project as a solid Division I recruit.
“I’m a combination of power and speed,” Holston, who has a 4.5-second time in the 40-yard dash and a 35-inch vertical leap, said.

Holston had 17 – yes that’s right – sacks as a junior, along with 1,187 yards rushing and 14 touchdowns. He said he wants to play running back in college, but is open to a number of positions.
Georgia, Florida, Florida State, Auburn, Clemson and Georgia Tech currently lead his list at this point. He pans to camp this summer at Auburn, Clemson and UGA.
