The talented defender from Brophy Prep in Phoenix, Arizona, has committed to playing college football for the Kansas State Wildcats. Following an official campus visit last weekend, he announced his decision on Wednesday, choosing Kansas State over eight other scholarship offers.
Standing at 6-foot-2 and 200 pounds, Mitchell is one of the top defensive prospects in Arizona for the 2025 class. He made his commitment ahead of his senior year, ranking as the nation’s No. 195 linebacker and the No. 31 overall prospect in Arizona according to 247Sports.
Mitchell explained, “I visited Kansas State with many questions, and by the end of the visit, I had all the answers I needed. The culture of football, family, brotherhood, and life in general at Kansas State was exactly what I was looking for. The coaching staff believes in me and can develop my skills, making me feel like part of a family.”
During his junior year, Mitchell recorded 72 total tackles, including 5.5 tackles for loss over 13 games. He expressed his excitement about joining coach Joe Klanderman’s defense, praising his expertise and teaching ability. Mitchell believes his versatility will allow him to play multiple positions, including jack or strong safety.
His commitment adds to the Wildcats’ double-digit pledges for the current recruiting cycle.
