#2 Alex Anderson Alex Anderson 6'7" | SF Tipton-Rosemark Academy | 2021 TN (EAB 3SSB)
Mr. Basketball candidate. Verbally committed to South Alabama.
#7 Grant Slatten Grant Slatten 6'5" | SG White County | 2021 State TN (EAB 3SSB)
Mr. Basketball candidate with two new D1 offers in the last week (USF, Ole Miss).
#8 Eric Rivers Eric Rivers 6'1" | PG McCallie | 2021 State TN (EAB 3SSB)
Elite football recruit with amazing change of direction on the bball floor. Deserving of more D1 bball attention. Perhaps coaches are shying away because they assume he will play D1 football.
#9 Matthew Sells Matthew Sells 6'3" | SG Livingston Academy | 2021 State TN (Pro One Select)
Still in search of his first D1 offer. Sells put up big numbers all summer and earned a new D2 offer two weeks ago.
#14 Kley McGowan Kley McGowan 6'4" | SG Cleveland | 2021 State TN ( Tennessee Tigers )
One of the biggest climbers in our May ranking update.
#16 PJ Smith PJ Smith 5'11" | PG Goodpasture | 2021 State TN (Pro One Select)
Eager to add on to his first offer (Freed-Hardeman).
#18 Matthew Schneider Matthew Schneider 6'5" | CG Siegel | 2021 State TN (PSB Nashville-Beasley)
If you are looking for 1 guy to breakout with college recruiters this weekend, this is that guy. Schneider has not played a real game since late February. He played a ton, but his AAU team elected to bypass July for Co-Vid precautionary measures. Schneider and his team are itching to get going. “I know it really is crazy I’ve never had this long of a break of real games since I can remember,” shared Schneider last week.
#20 Reed Kemp Reed Kemp 6'0" | PG Franklin | 2021 State TN (EAB 3SSB 17u)
Frenetic feet provide Reed with access to unformed, unprepared defensive lanes and spots. Kemp is still widely overlooked. Big opportunity this weekend.
#32 Isaiah Farrior Isaiah Farrior 6'5" | SG Clarksville Northeast | 2021 State TN (Mid-State Elite)
Interest from Morehead State. D1 athlete. Starter for Clarksville Northeast.
#43 Jack Brown Jack Brown 6'4" | SG Maryville | 2021 State TN (Mid-State Elite)
Bouncy. Maryville High School star.
#50 Ametri Moss Ametri Moss 6'0" | PG Clarksville Northwest | 2021 State TN (Mid-State Elite)
For what it is worth, #50 in the Class of 2020 signed with East Tennessee State University and the ’21 class is significantly deeper.
#65 Meechie Bowens Meechie Bowens 6'0" | SG Howard Tech | 2021 State TN (Tennessee Blazers)
Picked up as a scoring mercenary for this weekend. Bowens is a rifleman with high confidence and natural athleticism.
#66 Martise Jackson Martise Jackson 6'3" | CG Siegel | 2021 State TN (PSB Elite – Beasley)
Worthy of an All-Defense First Team nomination if such a team existed at the statewide level.
#68 Marcus Averhart Marcus Averhart 6'2" | CG Clarksville Northeast | 2021 State TN (Mid-State Elite)
Starter for Clarksville Northeast High School.
#77 Joshua Alexander Joshua Alexander 6'6" | SF Blackman | 2021 State TN (Mid-State Elite)
Transferred from Northeast to Blackman High for this upcoming senior year.
#102 Keaton Allen Keaton Allen 6'3" | SF Northeast | 2021 State TN (Mid-State Elite)
Shooter with good height for position.
