The first player on this list is Arkansas point guard Layden Blocker. He's a member of the 2023 class and was a four-star prospect out of high school. He remains a four-star in the transfer portal with a small drop from a 94 grade out of high school to a 91 grade in the portal.
Tennessee wasn't able to get Blocker on campus before he committed to Arkansas, but that doesn't mean the Vols are out on him. The only schools Blocker visited before his final visit to Arkansas were Ole Miss, Oklahoma, and Auburn.
Here's some of what 247Sports' Adam Finkelstein said about Blocker, "Layden Blocker is an athletic guard who is dynamic in the open floor. He has tremendous end-to-end speed with the basketball and is capable of creating tempo like few others in the open court. He has the ability to accelerate mid-drive, attack both sides (he has a very good left hand), and is also an impressive vertical athlete at the rim.
"While he's still developing some of the nuances of the point guard position, he has learned how to operate within offensive structure and is reliable with the ball in his hands to the tune of a 3.8:1 assist-to-turnover ratio in NIBC play as a junior. He's not a natural outside shooter, but is selective picking his spots, and able to knock down enough open rhythm shots to keep defenders honest."
