Tennessee football recruiting for the 2025 season is already underway, and the Volunteers are off to a strong start. They have already secured commitments from several top prospects, including five-star quarterback Nico Iamaleava. Iamaleava is considered one of the best quarterbacks in the country, and his commitment is a major coup for Tennessee. The Volunteers are also in the running for several other top prospects, including five-star wide receiver Carnell Tate and five-star defensive end Shemar Stewart. If Tennessee can land these players, they will have one of the best recruiting classes in the country.
The importance of recruiting cannot be overstated. It is the lifeblood of any college football program. Tennessee has not been to a major bowl game since the 2004 season, and they have not won an SEC Championship since 1998. In order to return to prominence, the Volunteers need to improve their recruiting. They have made significant progress in recent years, and they are now on the cusp of having a top-10 recruiting class. If they can continue to recruit at a high level, they will be a major contender in the SEC and on the national stage.
