Alex Bruno Alex Bruno 6'7" | PF Franklin Road Academy | 2022 State TN verbally committed to University of Dallas.
Newberry College evaluated the Powell Higb School players.
Days after hosting Chandler Jackson Chandler Jackson 6'5" | CG Christian Brothers | 2022 State #87 Nation TN in Knoxville, University of Tennessee Head Coach Rick Barnes stopped by his practice to show love and scout. Tennessee is playing catch up to other programs after offering so “late” but they are making all the right moves.
To the extent that it matters, fellow Top 5 player in 2022, B.J. Edwards (Tennessee verbal) is willing and even eager for UT to recruit and perhaps sign Chandler. Sometimes you see jealously emerge when two players sign in the same class at the same position.
Anderson University evaluated Elijah Bredwood Elijah Bredwood 6'1" | SG Bearden | 2022 State TN (Bearden) and Will Biven Will Biven 6'3" | SG Knoxville West | 2022 State TN (Knoxville West) mid-week. Bredwood and Biven played AAU together on the winningest AAU team of the summer.
Lincoln Memorial is all in with Bredwood. They host him for an official offer today (October 7th) and spent several hours evaluating him this week.
Independence High forward Cameron Bell Cameron Bell 6'4" | SF Red Bank | 2021 State TN , a player I simply have not seen play, is hearing from several colleges: Lee University, University of Alabama Huntsville, Trevecca, Union University.
2022 forward Isaiah Regular (Overton) will be on an official visit at Chipola Junior College for the remainder of this week. He will take an official visit to Northwest Mississippi Community College next week.

Way back in June Morehead State inquired about Hunter Pratt Hunter Pratt 6'6" | PF Christian Brothers | 2022 State TN (Christian Brothers). Lately, Rhodes College seems to be the most interested though he holds no formal offers.
Chip Brunt Chip Brunt 6'4" | PG Whitehaven | 2023 GA is earned elevated interest from UT Martin. The new staff is working to build out their program and the obvious first place you look when you take over the UT Martin job is Memphis, Tennessee. Chip is a special talent with a young body and matured skills. The thinking from Chip and his support group is he will sign April not November.
Jack Browder Jack Browder 6'4" | CG Dobyns Bennett | 2022 State TN added a King University offer. Milligan already offered him. Mars Hill and Bryan are in constant contact.
Malachi Hale (Dobyns-Bennett) is in talks with King, Roane State, and many others.
Mercer offered David Craig David Craig 7'1" | C McCallie | 2022 State TN (McCallie).
