Atlanta is obviously the largest city in the Deep South (which includes LA, MS, AL, GA, SC and parts of neighboring states), as well as the most commercially important and cosmopolitan. Is there an obvious "second city" of the Deep South, or one that is growing and could one day compete with Atlanta and help make the region more economically competitive? Consider places like New Orleans, Birmingham, or Memphis... (Texas and Florida don't really count)

East Texas is part of the deep south.... look up deep south on wiki east Texas is included.
If you don't consider Texas or NC, it's between Memphis & Birmingham. That area from MS to SC is very underwhelming excluding ATL. But will they compete with ATL? No. ATL's competition is in Texas or Florida.
Charlotte nc is bigger than atlanta within its city limits already
...only because Charlotte's municipal limits are more than twice the size of Atlanta's.
If we are going to use that sort of reasoning, then Raleigh's bigger than Miami.
Silly, just silly.
