The regular season is coming to an end around the country, with most states nearing championship weekend by mid-Novemeber. The Volunteer State is no different. Here’s a look at five class of 2028 prospects that I really like on film. Their stock has certainly risen with me and should for other people, too.
– Three-sport athlete (baseball and basketball) that looks like he is destined for some big things athletically. Don’t have exact measureables, but I’m guessing he’s around 6-foot-3 and 180 pounds, based off his film
– Uses his that size very well and is a mismatch at this level of play, simply overwhelming defenses with size, pretty good speed and hands. Just a man amongst boys on this level
– He is nearly an EXACT replica of how PRZ Next camp alumni and 2026 tight end prospect, Carson Sneed Carson Sneed 6’6″ | 240 lbs | TE DCA | 2026 State TN looked as an eighth-grader. While Sneed is closing in on 20 scholarship offers as a sophomore, Cornell was used the exact same way as an eighth-grader this year, getting the ball on end-arounds and lining up in the slot, too.
– An All-Conference selection, from a conference-championship-winning Oakland Middle School Team this past season
– Hargrove is listed at 5-foot-9 and 160 pounds, but that might be a media guide height compared to his actual. Nonetheless, he’s a compact, strong kid that also plays catcher on the baseball diamond
– One of those thick, linebacker/fullback type of kids that is a joy to watch on the field. As a linebacker he looks like a natural and is lightning quick to the ball-carrier. Offensively, he’s a fullback body type with halfback speed at this point. Just a flat out, really good football player in this 2028 class
Highlights
– Bass is an absolute load to bring down at running back, listed unofficially at 5-foot-10 and 180. The size is a plus obviously, but Bass is also a very strong back with that size. Already posting a deadlift of 410 pounds and a benchpress of 215
– Was part of a really good Hawkins Commando team this past season, that (at times) played significantly better than the 3-5 record they finished the year with
– On a team that featured three very skilled and capable backs, Bass was the hammer that picked up a lot of tough yards. In my opinion, he’s also the most complete back at this point. For a back his size, his speed, jump cuts and quickness are very impressive
– On the ground, Porter led Greenfield Junior High to a dominant undefeated season and Reelfoot Conference Championship in 2023
– He wraps up a middle school career for the Yellow Jackets that saw him earn an All-Conference nod as a seventh-grader last year and an eighth-grader this year. In his final contest, he put an exclamation point on his career with a three-touchdown performance en route to earning the championship game Offensive MVP
– Just an overall plus on the football field at this level from the running back position. On film appears to be a little above average in terms of size and speed, in addition to having some sneaky athleticism while moving the ball down field
– Staying in the Reelfoot Conference, quarterback Tucker Phelon Tucker Phelon 5’8″ | 160 lbs | QB Obion County Central | 2028 TN had a sensational 2023 season for the Hillcrest Cougar Middle School team; Leading them to the conference championship game and earning an All-Conference selection in the process
– The three-sport athlete (basketball and baseball) accounted for the lone touchdown and two-point conversion in the conference championship game loss to the Westin Porter Westin Porter RB Greenfield | 2028 TN -led Greenfield Yellow Jackets
– He passes the eye test right away in terms of build, stature and QB swag at 5-foot-10 and 150-ish pounds. Then backs it up with dual-threat ability that is exciting to watch and drives the opposition crazy. Looks cool and calm operating out of the shotgun, but can then take off within the blink of an eye
