Both Keshawn Lawrence and Harrison Bailey will be on the same team at The Opening as some key targets for the Vols. Bailey’s tight end on his high school team in Marietta, Arik Gilbert, is on his team at The Opening, and there are also two high priority wide receiver targets on the roster in EJ Williams and Ze’Vian Capers. Lawrence will be working on the same defense as outside linebacker Kourt Williams, another Vol target.

As for Cooper Mays, he’ll be on the same team another Vol offensive line target, Marcus Dumervil. The rest of UT’s top targets at the event won’t have a Vol commit to work alongside them in team events, but expect Tennessee’s commitments to be working hard at peer recruiting throughout the whole event.
