Mississippi State is in the middle of training camp but it hasn’t slowed down the Bulldogs’ progress in the Class of 2026. On Monday evening juco offensive tackle Jarmaine Mitchell announced his commitment to Mississippi State and became the 28th commitment for the Bulldogs in the class.

The 6-foot-8 and 310-pound Mitchell started every game last year at left tackle as a freshman at Copiah-Lincoln Community College. The Louisiana native was also one of Mississippi State’s top juco targets in this recruiting cycle and he was offered by Mississippi State last year.

“It’s been good with Mississippi State,” remarked Mitchell last month. “Their coaches have been getting in contact with me a lot. It’s been really good with Coach Phil Loadholt. He is just trying to get to know me and build that bond.”

Mitchell held double-digit Division 1 offers and that includes other Power 4 offers from LSU, Ole Miss and Colorado. Mitchell reported recently that he will take an official visit to Mississippi State during the fall.

With his decision, Mitchell becomes the second juco commitment for State’s Class of 2026, joining current teammates and receiver Matt Mayfield, who joined the Bulldogs’ class last week.

Mitchell is expected to be a December graduate and is also the sixth offensive linemen to join State’s Class of 2026. The other offensive linemen commits are from the prep ranks with Dalton Toothman, Charles Humphrey, Camron Thompson, Dylan Steen and Jayden Ross.
