Tennessee Dealt Concerning News on Predicted Change of Heart From Star Playmaker
Tennessee Dealt Concerning News on Predicted Change of Heart From Star Playmaker originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Tennessee Volunteers have just nine commitments in the 2026 recruiting class. Rivals' Sam Spiegelman projected Tuesday, though, that it's only a matter of time until the program has eight 2026 recruits pledged. Advertisement The recruiting analyst predicted four-star tight end Carson Sneed will de-commit and play his college career elsewhere. "Four-star TE Carson Sneed has been committed in-state to the Volunteers for nearly a year, but there is a strong expectation that this will not carry over too much longer," wrote Spiegelman. The tight end officially visited three other schools this spring. All three programs have made inroads with the prospect. "Sneed logged official visits to North Carolina, Ole Miss and Florida -- and our intel points to the Gators leading the charge to flip the blue-chipper. Sneed also has family ties to Chapel Hill and a high level of interest in the Rebels. Advertisement "We do not expect him to wind up playing in Rocky Top." Tennessee Volunteers football head coach Josh Heupel© Steve Roberts-Imagn Images Losing Sneed would be a significant blow for the Volunteers. The tight end is the fifth-highest ranked recruit, according to 247Sports, committed to Tennessee in the 2026 class. Sneed is also the only tight end pledged to the Volunteers for 2026. Based on the 247Sports Composite rankings, Sneed is the 14th-ranked tight end and No. 8 Tennessee prospect in the 2026 class. Losing a top 10 in-state recruit, especially to a rival, if Sneed lands with the Florida Gators, would be a tough pill for Tennessee to swallow. Overall, Sneed, who is a Nashville, Tennessee native, is the No. 265 prospect in the 2026 class.
