It looks to be a very good year in Mississippi for the 2014 recruiting class. At the top of the initial state rankings is Devin Voorhies a very versatile athlete that can do a little of everything. He is followed by Grant Harris a huge defensive end with the speed to track players down from behind. Coming in third is huge downhill runner Aeris Williams who also possesses homerun speed.

CJ Hampton is the complete defensive back with ball skills and the affinity for contact. Rounding out the top five is DK Buford a back with the skills to become a dominant slot receiver. The Magnolia State rankings will be updated at least two more times prior to signing day. Look for new names to surface after the NUC Five-Star Showcase in Zachary, LA on March, 24 at 1pm.
