One of Tennessee football’s prized 2026 commits is scheduled to take a visit elsewhere this Saturday. Four-star athlete Salesi Moa will be at Michigan to see the Wolverines take on Ohio State on Saturday, according to Rivals.
Moa committed to the Vols over Michigan and Utah. His father was a tight end for the Utes, and he has a brother at UConn and another at Michigan State, which he also had in consideration.
Out of Ogden, Utah, Moa has not publicly been making game day visits to Tennessee or any other school until this weekend. He had been interacting with Vols content on his X, though, and seemingly wasn’t wavering from his commitment. While a visit to Michigan doesn’t necessarily mean he will flip, it does show UT will have to finish strong with early signing day just a week away.

More From RTI: Tennessee Football in Top Schools List for Elite 2027 Wide Receiver Recruiting Target
Moa ranks as the No. 45 player in the country, according to 247 composite rankings. There was a period where he was a composite five-star on the service, but recent ranking refreshes have pushed him back to a consensus four-star rating.
He is considered the No. 3 athlete in the country and the No. 1 player out of Utah. He is believed to be the first Tennessee player ever from Utah if he sticks with his commitment. There is still a tie to the Vols, though. Josh Heupel began his playing career at Weber State, located in Moa’s hometown.
Moa is projected to play both sides of the ball at the next level. While he may start on just one side, he has shown the ability to be an elite wide receiver and defensive back. The Vols have tried to make this work with both Dee Williams and Boo Carter, but Williams’ switch was in the middle of the season, and Carter had issues off the playing field that put a halt to those plans.
