Tennessee basketball is hosting visitors on campus Saturday afternoon as Vol football hosts ETSU in the 2025 home opener at Neyland Stadium. Four-star class of 2027 shooting guard RJ Moore is unofficially visiting Tennessee Saturday according to 247sports Dushawn London.

Moore ranks as a four-star recruit and the No. 61 player in the 2027 recruiting cycle according to the 247sports composite rankings. The 6-foot-6, 175-pound prospect also ranks as the No. 5 shooting guard and the No. 3 player in the state of North Carolina in the 2027 recruiting class.

A Charlotte native, Moore plays his prep basketball at Ambassador Christian School in Huntersville where he helped lead the Lions to a 21-6 record a season ago.

While Moore is unofficially visiting this weekend, Tennessee basketball’s biggest visitor of the weekend is undoubtedly five-star point guard Miles Sadler. The Arizona native ranks as the No. 3 point guard in the 2026 recruiting class and is officially visiting this weekend.

Tennessee will host 2027 recruits on unofficial visits this fall including four-star combo guard LJ Smith in October. But most of the Vols’ recruiting efforts are on the 2026 recruiting class at the moment.

The Vols have yet to land a commit in their 2026 recruiting cycle but their recruiting board is starting to come into frame with a number of fall official visits scheduled. Along with Sadler, Tennessee is recruiting five-star point guard Deron Rippey Jr. hard.

On the wing, the Vols are hosting a number of recruits on campus this fall including five-star Bryson Howard, four-star Manny Green, four-star Bo Ogden and four-star Jasiah Jervis. Tennessee plans on hosting a pair of power forwards on visits— five-star Christian Collins and Cody Peck.

Tennessee is setting up for a massive recruiting weekend in late October when the Vols face Duke in an exhibition game at Thompson-Boling Arena at Food City Center. Rippey, Howard, Jarvis, Collins and Peck are all visiting that weekend, making it a trio of five-star recruits and a pair of four-star recruits visiting the same weekend.

Vol hoops has four seniors on its 2025-26 roster but after signing a large prep class a season ago, the Vols likely won’t sign an abundance of prep prospects this cycle.
