After his 2023 State Tournament debut March 16th morning, Carter earned an offer from the hosting school, Middle Tennessee.
Taquez Butler Taquez Butler 6'3" | SG Douglass | 2025 State TN (Douglass) sizzled Friday. He was the best player on the floor, a floor with a few college prospects because he attacked with purpose and smoothness. Calculating, crafty, elegant, quick, poised. Butler’s buckets in the mid-range impressed the most. In the open floor there are many wonderful scorers and sprinters statewide, but creating something out of nothing is an indication of practice, a developed skill. Butler is a wonderful 6-foot-2 combo guard right now, representative of the Class of 2025.
Janerus Snipe Janerus Snipe 6'7" | PF Haywood (basketball) | 2023 State TN (Haywood) earned an offer from Chattanooga State Community College Thursday evening.
Will Beaty Will Beaty 6'4" | SF York Institute | 2026 State TN (York Institute) is not an obvious college prospect. He does have something worth following for @PrepHoopsTN. Ok size. Decent athleticism. Playing in a State Tournament game as a freshman is extremely uncommon. A few players who previously did: Tyger Campbell, Matthew Sells, Kennedy Chandler, Keon Johnson, Jeremiah Oatsvall, Tyler Tanner Tyler Tanner 6'1" | PG Brentwood Academy | 2024 State #133 Nation TN .
Jaceion Coffey Jaceion Coffey 6'5" | SF Giles County | 2024 State TN (Giles County) hit some big shots from deep and struggled to get layups up and in. The size difference between York Institute and Power Center Academy was noticeable. Coffey was lonely in the lane against a squadron of bombers, long wingspans. He persevered despite.
Jett Montgomery Jett Montgomery 6'1" | PG Independence | 2024 State TN (Independence) played very well throughout the week. He scored with guile and the best shooting touch in the land.
