There's a new No. 1 team in Class 2A. Fitzgerald, which finished second 2022, climbed into the top spot of the GPB Rankings this week. 

GPB’s Hannah Goodin and Jon Nelson caught up with three head coaches from three different programs, coming off of three very different seasons, to see how each coach goes about laying the groundwork for a state title during the off-season. Preparations vary drastically from town to town, so let's find out how Langston Hughes head coach Boone Williams, Peach County new head coach Marquis Westbrook and Colquitt County head coach Sean Calhoun prepare for the fall.

This week on the Football Fridays in Georgia podcast, Hannah and Jon are joined by the all-stars to break down all of the 2022 championship matchups.

On this week's podcast, Hannah and Jon discuss the big Region 1-AA showdown with Cook Coach Byron Slack and Fitzgerald Coach Tucker Pruitt and they review the regional champs that have already been crowned across the state.
