2026 four-star QB Faizon Brandon is set to announce his commitment on August 3rd, prior to his junior season.
The Vols have prioritized Brandon for quite some time, having the North Carolina native on campus for various camps and visits.
Brandon is down to four schools, Alabama, LSU, North Carolina State, and Tennessee.
We had a chance to see the Grimsley (NC.) student-athlete in action for the Elite 11 regional in Atlanta. At that time the Vols were the, "top school," for the talented prospect. Evaluation wise, Brandon is very raw, but also young. The base talent is very nice, but the upside is ever more impressive. Is Rocky Top set to be a revolving door for QBs from college to the NFL? Only time will tell, but Josh Heupel has done an amazing job.
Hendon Hooker and Joe Milton were draft picks, with the current roster containing former five-star QB Nico Iamaleava, four-star Jake Merklinger, and have their 2025 guy with an in-state four-star talent, George McIntyre.
