<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2026 class has a lot of talent in the state of Tennessee. The top players have yet to commit to a program. There's even more talent outside of the top 30.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This class is filled with solid guard play, size and skill on the perimeter and in the front court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here's part six of notable prospects college coaches can't go wrong with recruiting:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2551694' first='Garrison' last='White'], McCallie: White is one of the most slept-on combo guards in the senior class. At 6-foot-0, White hustles, takes charges, rebounds, and plays aggressive defense. He's a reliable knockdown shooter and knows how to finish at the rim. White can play college basketball at some level. He will help McCallie win a lot of games this upcoming season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2340858' first='Grayson' last='Scragg'], Donelson Christian Academy: Scragg has been consistent throughout his high school career. He's been an efficient scorer. Scragg had a productive month of June, especially at BCAT where he averaged 21 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists in four games. The 6-1 point guard has a quick release and knows how to finish through contact. Scragg has shown his ability to get past defenders. He's another prospect that should find a college home.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2574702' first='Brody' last='McGuire'], Science Hill: McGuire is a tough guard at 6-2. He's lefty that can make deep shots from 3-point range. He's a high energy guy. One steal, one defensive stop, or one shot easily gets him going. McGuire finishes well near the rim through contact. He's always looking to attack the rim. McGuire plays with no fear.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='2634289' first='Malachi' last='Brown'], Knoxville Catholic: Brown is a lengthy wing with his best basketball still ahead of him. He runs the floor well, aggressive and active on the glass, and finishes well around the rim. Brown can make shots from different areas on the floor. At 6-5, he can play both wing positions. Brown can guard multiple positions on the court. His ceiling is high. Brown should be a productive college player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1560097' first='Kayin' last='Mitchell'], Whitehaven: Whenever he wants to, Mitchell can be one of the best guards on the floor. From an offensive standpoint, he gets going easily after he sees a couple of shots go in. From a defensive standpoint, Mitchell will be physical. In 2025, Mitchell will need to be one of the better guards in Class 4A for the Tigers to get back to Murfreesboro, Tennessee. He has the ability to be a lead guard. Mitchell is also growing on college programs as well. Two years at a solid junior college will have him in great position to play high level Division 1 basketball at a quality program.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

The 2026 class has a lot of talent in the state of Tennessee. The top players have yet to commit to a program. There's even more talent outside of the top 30.
