We Project the Level for Remaining 4A College Prospects

The focus is rightfully on the teams. Individuals are mere cogs in the machine, a machine built to advance to the State Tournament in Murfreesboro. In the following analysis, time and shine will be given to the players with college basketball potential still alive in the 4A regional tournaments. Let us begin.

Jordan Frison

6 State

3 Pos

6'0" | PG | 2023 Overton  |  YBA

Stunningly underrecruited scoring guard. Is he a point guard in college? Maybe not. Certainly Jordan Frison Jordan Frison 6'0" | PG Overton | 2023 State TN is a scorer at the next level. He is jet-quick with great offensive instincts and nice enough bounce though will certainly stand a little shorter than his opponents in college. Jordan Frison Jordan Frison 6'0" | PG Overton | 2023 State TN projects as a low-major D1 guard. Apparently, there are two factors working against him with regards to his current recruitments: size, transfer portal. College recruiters are leagues less aggressive pursuing high school seniors than even three years ago thanks to the rule change. Jordan is hardly the only person affected, but he is one of the beleaguered parties.

Hudson Gill

33 State

10 Pos

6'7" | SF | 2024 Hendersonville  |  Team Crew

Hudson Gill Hudson Gill 6'7" | SF Hendersonville | 2024 State TN once again displayed a D3-floor in Hendersonville’s win Tuesday. Acrobatic and fluid mid-flight.

JJ Faulkner

58 State

15 Pos

5'11" | PG | 2023 Karns  |  Tennessee Travelers

J.J. Faulkner (Karns) earned his first offer as January concluded when Tusculum made the proposed investment. Faulkner dribbles with an elegance and plus speed. Nobody in Tennessee is faster incorporating his behind-the-back dribble. In the Beavers’ win over Oak Ridge Faulkner detached from a couple defenders with that special move.

Reed Ownby

16 State

4 Pos

6'5" | SG | 2025 Sevier County  |  BMaze

Reed Ownby Reed Ownby 6'5" | SG Sevier County | 2025 State TN (Sevier County) showed a D2 floor way back in July 2022 with BMaze 15u. Crafted mid-range baskets with the dribble.

Grady Robertson Grady Robertson 6'4" | PG William Blount | 2024 State TN plays like D2 guard.

T.J. Kolbe and Ty Lannom Ty Lannom 6'0" | PG Hendersonville | 2023 State TN are likely college hoopers next year. Kolbe seems like a D3 guy while Lannom appears destined for NAIA.

Reece Pride

141 State

50 Pos

5'10" | PG | 2023 William Blount  |  B Maze Elite

Reece Pride Reece Pride 5'10" | PG William Blount | 2023 State TN (William Blount) signed to Covenant College.
