Canyon Marsh, Xavier Muhammad Join Texas HS Football Podcast

Episode 146 of the Texas HS Football Podcast features host Taylor Arenz talking with two standouts helping lead successful programs into the final stretch of the 2026 season.

Malakoff junior quarterback Canyon Marsh has developed into a dangerous dual-threat after earning the starting job as a sophomore. Marsh discusses his growth, Malakoff’s undefeated season, big wins over Commerce and Winnsboro, and the expectations that come with playing for a championship program.

Taylor also catches up with Shadow Creek senior defensive lineman Xavier Muhammad. The Michigan commit discusses his recruiting journey, why the Wolverines became the right fit and what younger athletes can learn from the process.

Muhammad also talks about Shadow Creek’s dominant defense, playing multiple sports and the emotions surrounding his final high school season.

Both players offer an inside look at programs with big expectations as the postseason approaches.
