2025 Tennessee football Early Signing Period tracker

National Signing Day is here, and Tennessee football is projected to land a top-ten class. The Vols have the No. 8-ranked recruiting class in the country heading into signing day with 3 five-stars and 12 four-stars verbally committed. 

On3 Sports has Tennessee as the No. 10 recruiting class, largely thanks to the Vols' ability to flip a few big names from other SEC programs.

"Flipmas came early this year, as Josh Heupel and Co. went on a spree of poaching other teams top commits," Keegan Pope writes. "That includes five-star WR Tristen Keys (LSU), EDGE Hezekiah Harris (Auburn), and OT Kamari Blair (South Carolina), and they’re still working for more. Seven of their 23 commitments rank among the top-100 nationally, and they’re up to 13 blue-chippers in total."

The Vols have already secured the signings of all three five-star recruits, and with that, have secured their offensive future, with Faizon Brandon leading Josh Heupel's offense, and offensive lineman Gabriel Osenda and wide receiver Tristen Keys set to join him on Rocky Top. 

Heupel and company have made it a goal to add important athletes around Brandon, and have done so with this class so far. 

Additions to the defensive secondary have also been made a priority, with the Vols looking to add at least six players to their secondary and a couple more linebackers. 

There have also been a few social media rumors that Tennessee could land some surprise recruits. We will see how things go throughout the day for the Vols and if they can flip a couple of big names.
