Some 2026 Skilled Players To Keep An Eye On

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We have some 2026 skilled players in Mississippi who really get after it. They are some studs in their department. We want to give you an update on how they have been doing.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Deanthony Miller</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Miller is one of the best 2026 players in the state of Mississippi. When we were able to see him at the Super Sophomore Game two seasons ago, he showed us that he has a really big heart. Miller is one of those feisty defensive backs who knows how to come up and be a pest. Miller is also known for being able to cover well. Yes, we think he has division one talent. Do not let his size fool you.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='284031' first='Mickell' last='Smith']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Smith is a wide receiver from Northwest Rankin who does a good job of going to get the football. He has started to pick up some division one attention. We think that Smith is a player who will have the chance to play on offense or defense. Smith is one of those guys who loves to be a playmaker. He also has good speed. We are going to keep our eyes on him this offseason.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1407627' first='Xzavier' last='Webber'] </strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Webber has been on fire during his recruiting as of late. Coaches are starting to see that his athleticism cannot be denied. Webber is a star player in basketball and football. He is being recruited for the wide receiver and defensive back positions in football. He is a division one prospect who is only going to see his stock rise more. Webber has a few division one offers. More should be coming.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1551936' first='Dylan' last='Varnell']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Varnell is a kid who we were impressed with when he showed up to our combine in Jackson. We are expecting him to have a good offseason. He plays the linebacker position, but we think that he is more of a safety. Varnell needs to show college coaches that he is able to get out there and cover. He needs to show that he can have some flexibility in his hips. We know that he does not mind coming up to make tackles.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
