Monitoring the most recent prospects Tennessee is pursuing within the NCAA transfer portal.
Even though National Signing Day and the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl are behind them, Tennessee remains in roster-management mode as they strive to finalize their lineup for the upcoming 2024 season. Despite securing four players from the NCAA transfer portal in December, the Vols are actively engaged in the ongoing search for additional talent, with new prospects emerging as the open window progresses into January. Given the rapid pace of portal recruiting, keeping track of Tennessee’s targets can be challenging.
The most intense period of portal recruiting for Tennessee, like many teams, occurred in December. The Vols extended a broad range of offers and expressions of interest, resulting in four noteworthy additions. Among them are Notre Dame tight end Holden Staes, Tulane wide receiver Chris Brazzell, and Oregon State cornerback Jermod McCoy, all earning four-star ratings from 247Sports. Additionally, Middle Tennessee State safety Jakobe Thomas, a highly regarded three-star recruit, brings valuable experience to the secondary. Recent developments suggest that the Vols are particularly focused on fortifying a specific defensive position and seeking assistance on the offensive line.
As Tennessee’s efforts in the transfer portal persist, this running tracker provides updates on the players the Vols are targeting in January, with regular updates to follow.
