The 2027 class is the focus for Tennessee football and the rest of the country, but the Vols are also keeping their eye on the future. In this effort, UT has been extending some offers to different prospects across the nation.
One of the recent offers to be handed out was extended to class of 2029 wide receiver Rush Williams. He announced the offer on Wednesday, with it coming through the route of offensive analyst Deonte’ Cruse.
Williams is not ranked by 247, with his class not fully analyzed yet. He stands at 6-foot-2 and 180 pounds entering his sophomore year out of Fulshear, Texas. He plays for Katy Jordan High School.
