The 6-foot-4, 228-pound prospect has summer visits lined up to all six schools in his top group. He’ll visit Notre Dame first followed by Georgia, Georgia Tech, USC, Texas and then finally Tennessee. The Vols getting his final official visit could prove to be a big-plus if he announces his college commitment in July.
Quinn’s summer official visit to Tennessee will not be his first trip to Knoxville. He’s already taken two visits to Tennessee, unofficially visiting the Vols for their matchup against Florida last season before returning for a January Junior Day.
Tennessee football’s 2025 recruiting class currently contains eight commits including from a pair of edge rushers. New Jersey three-star edge CJ Edwards committed to Tennessee in February while Nashville four-star Zach Groves committed to Tennessee last last month.
The Vols’ eight-commit recruiting class currently ranks No. 25 nationally and No. 5 in the SEC according to the 247sports team rankings.
