Jacari Comage Jacari Comage 6'2" | PG Haywood | 2024 State TN (Haywood) earned an offer from Phillips Community College Tuesday afternoon. Comage plays for Haywood Head Coach Rodney Chatman. Comage is averaging 10.6 points per through 20 games this year, up from 6.9 ppg last year.
In 2022-2023, Haywood earned District 14 Runners-Up and Region 7 Champions. Entering this season the Tomcats were tasked with replacing Mr. Basketball Finalist Tylon Chatman, rugged forward Janerus Snipe, and Jamari Person.
Caden Windle Caden Windle 6'6" | SF William Blount | 2024 State TN (William Blount) will have an opportunity or several as a D1 preferred walk-on. He currently holds offers from Covenant (Georgia), Maryville, Tennessee Wesleyan, Bryan, Kentucky Christian, and Johnson University.
Blake Dean Blake Dean 6'1" | PG Ezell Harding Christian School | 2024 State TN (Ezell-Harding) earned an offer from Crowley’s Ridge.
Shane Cherry Shane Cherry 5'9" | PG Austin-East | 2025 State #353 Nation TN intends to visit Auburn after the season “because all of our Saturdays are taken up,” said Austin-East Head Coach Denard Bertram last week. “He was supposed to go to the Tennessee/Georgia game, but we played on that day.” Auburn Head Coach Bruce Pearl is not averse to playing a shorter lead guard. Remember Jared Harper thrived as a Tiger at 5-foot-9. Cherry is a little bit different than Harper was, in that Cherry is more explosive with better handles and slashing. Harper was a tremendous mid-range and outside shooter at the same stage in high school.
Other programs recruiting Cherry right now are: Tennessee State, NKU, Belmont, and Southern Methodist University.
Johnson University offered JJ Faulker, a former Karns High point guard.
