Highlights
#51 Jedidiah Jarrett Jedidiah Jarrett 6'5" | SF The Webb School | 2025 State TN (Webb-Bell Buckle)
In the last year Jedidah grew from 6-foot-3 to 6-foot-5. He had to sit out in 2022-2023 after transferring to Bell Buckle from PCA. He will see time this season as the Feet lost Stephen Olowoniyi (graduation) and Arnett Hayes Arnett Hayes 6'2" | PG Battle Ground Academy | 2025 State TN (transfer). Both Jedidah and Jax Howard Jax Howard 6'0" | PG Webb-Bell Buckle | 2025 State TN are certain to grow into larger roles. The program continues under wonderful coach Micah Williams.
Jarrett is a decent outside shooter though he will play some forward too by team’s necessity.
Jarrett, is a 6-5 guard who brought length and athleticism on both ends of the floor throughout the weekend at the Music City Madness. Jarrett’s ability to shoot from beyond the arc took notice this weekend knocking down perimeter shots at a near 40 percent rate for Team Elite 615. On the defensive end he also brought physicality muscling his way to get rebounds limiting opponents from getting second chance scoring opportunities. – Ross Van De Griek

#52 Kaleb Jeffries Kaleb Jeffries 6'1" | CG Houston | 2025 State TN (Houston)
Kaleb Jeffries Kaleb Jeffries 6'1" | CG Houston | 2025 State TN ran with Boom City Elite all summer.
He debuted at #46 back in December 2022 thanks to an improved shooting touch.
Ideal guard height. Wonderful shooter from deep. His AAU season was a rousing success, as the junior averaged 14.6 ppg, 5.0 rpg, 3.4 apg, 2.4 spg.
Highlights
#53 Clay Payne Clay Payne 6'7" | SF University School Of Nashville | 2025 State TN (USN)
Though young Clay Payne Clay Payne 6'7" | SF University School Of Nashville | 2025 State TN was one of the best campers at PrepHoops 250 Expo way back in September 2022. Payne is a long, lean, skilled wing. He will bite for the pump fake from time to time. With Big 6 Elite AAU, the coach trusted him enough to be one of the primary press-breaking players. Payne was competent with the dribble and certainly poised enough when pressured.
Highlights
#54 Chandler Gamble Chandler Gamble 6'6" | PF South Greene | 2025 State TN (Halls)
Chandler spent his summer with an AAU team based out of Memphis. Odd, but explainable as the Boom City Elite director was tipped off by a friend in Knoxville. Chandler will be a college prospect thanks to his height and agility, but the skill lags behind currently. He can finish around the rim a little bit. He needs to get some heft, some power, and then develop more competence as a dribbler.
“I‘m 6’7” power forward,” shared Chandler Gamble Chandler Gamble 6'6" | PF South Greene | 2025 State TN on an external recruiting bio, “and I want to be the 3rd generation college basketball player in my family. My grandfather, who was inducted into the Hall of Fame at Tennessee Wesleyan, played college basketball along with my mom and dad who both played D1.”
#55 Towan Siler Towan Siler 5'11" | PG Wilson Central | 2025 State TN (Wilson Central)
Towan is a very slim guard. He is light on his feet with very quick reaction time. Around the time MLK Day arrived, Towan was only averaging about 5 ppg. The sophomore played with uncommon confidence. Siler will get the ball in his hands a lot more this season after the Wildcats graduated three-year starter Ethan Thomas. Siler is slight of frame and benefits from speed and aggression.
