Tennessee is the No. 7 team in the AP Poll right now, and will likely rise a couple of spots after beating No. 4 Kentucky on Saturday.
That momentum is carrying over to the recruiting trails, too, as the Vols landed a highly rated recruit on Sunday.
Per a report from 247Sports, 5-star forward Corey Walker verbally committed to Tennessee over the weekend:

Walker is the first player in Tennessee’s 2020 class. The class currently ranks No. 2 in the nation and No. 1 in the SEC, per 247Sports.
