DE Jonathan Kongbo III
Status: Kongbo’s recruitment has been the biggest drama of this class for the Vols. Tennessee landed the top-ranked junior college player in the nation in November, only to see him de-commit in early January.
Kongbo, however, said he would keep considering Tennessee, and while that often doesn’t come to fruition when a player de-commits, Kongbo kept his word and has the Vols in his final four along with Ole Miss, Florida State and USC. The Vols have put the full-court press on him. Four coaches went to see him in Arizona last week and even current Vol Derek Barnett said he’s been talking to him this week. Will that be enough to get him back in the fold? It’ll come down to the wire.
Daniel: Ole Miss
Nathanael: Tennessee
Stephen: Tennessee
