Friday Night Playmakers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There were some MAIS games that kicked off last week. There were also some MHSAA jamboree games going on. Here are some Mississippi players who did a good job.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1248052' first='Ethan' last='Bailey']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bailey scored a 99-yard touchdown run against Hartfield Academy. When he got the ball, he was off to the races. This is something that fans in the state of Mississippi can expect from him. Maybe not 90-yard touchdowns every week, but he is a young man with the ability to be a dog at any given time. There are going to be a lot of more touchdowns that fans are going to see him score from far.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Latrent Agnew</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Agnew is a dog who is going to be making a lot of things happen this season for Starkville. When Prep Redzone talked to his father, he mentioned that some college programs have been interested in seeing what Agnew looks like on the defensive side of the football. Kid has great speed and good football instincts. He is one of those guys who will be able to stand out anywhere that his coaches decide to put him on the field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Tiwan Triplett</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Triplett is a running back from Starkville who is going to be making some things happen this season. He is a 2028 prospect who knows how to tote the rock. Most of the time, the first defender making contact is not going to bring him to the ground. He is one of those country boys who love contact. He is a strong kid who is going to be running through a lot of arm tackles this season. Triplett is a player with division talent. Be sure to get your eyes on him this season. This is going to be a big season for him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1022397' first='Adam' last='Alexander']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Alexander is a vicious linebacker who brings the pop when he makes tackles. He is a 6-foot, 220-pound 2028 linebacker for Jackson Academy. Ball carriers have to make sure they have their head on a swivel when he is in their area. This young man looks like he is out there knocking jaws loose. He is a good tackler who gets ball carriers to the ground immediately. He is not an arm tackling guy. Alexander is bringing those hips when he makes contact.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
