Braxton has shown some great ability early on in his career. As a QB Braxton features excellent accuracy, escapability and range. Several of Huges’ throws were made under pressure in tight windows displaying how honed his skills already are. To be performing at this high of a level makes Braxton a standout athlete. If he continues to have a similar or better season I am more than confident that many offers will come his way. He is already a top caliber prospect and has a lot more to offer in the next few seasons.
Marcus Flowers Jr Marcus Flowers Jr 5’8″ | 170 lbs | RB Charleston | 2026 State MS performed quite well last year for the Charleston Tigers. He is an electric running back who can take snaps and make plays happen with his feet. His downhill physical running style makes him a running back who is almost unstoppable to tackle. He rarely goes down with initial contact and works to get the most out of every carry. This paired with his elusive speed makes him a great prospect and a fierce competitor. I am looking forward to seeing Flowers grow as an athlete and be absolutely phenomenal on the field.

Sharroid is poised to be the next great QB at Ocean Springs. Their last QB is going on to play at Alabama and Whitehead has similar aspirations. This young stud is quick, elusive and accurate. He is a versatile athlete who can line up at any skill position and do extremely well. What stands out about his play style is his ability to extend plays with his feet and make off schedule throws. I am very confident that as he continues to play at such a high level several D1 programs will be looking his way.
Grant Kitchens Grant Kitchens 6’8″ | 300 lbs | OL Nanih Waiya | 2026 State MS is an impressive offensive lineman from Louisville, MS. He stands at an incredible 6-6 and 265 lbs. This kid has the power and strength needed to be dominant on the line of scrimage and protect his assigned gap. Due to his performance and size Grant has already been attracting lots of attention as a prospect. If he can continue his great play I am certain that plenty of recruiters will be willing to send him an offer in the future. I can foresee upwards of 20 offers by the time Kitchens is in his senior year.

Jamison Kelly Jamison Kelly 6’0″ | 170 lbs | DB Madison Central | 2026 State MS is a notable defensive back who has found great success early on in his career at Provine. Jamison plays with a tenacity that inspires hin to get involved in all aspects of the team. This past season he recorded over 60 tackles, multiple TFLs, forced fumbles and even a considerable amount of yards on offense. This kid is versatile yet productive in all facets. Due to his performances Kelly was selected as an JSP 1st team All City Athlete and will most likely receive more throughout his career. From what Kelly has shown he possesses the attributes and skills necessary to be an elite defensive back at many D1 programs. If he continues his current trajectory the sky is the limit for this kid.
