Tennessee basketball has reportedly added its first transfer commit of the offseason.
According to On3’s Joe Tipton, the Vols have earned a commitment from Belmont transfer guard Tyler Lundblade. The sharpshooter hit 43% of his 3-point attempts this season while playing for a Belmont team that went 26-6 this season.
Lundblade is a huge addition for Tennessee‘s 2026-27 roster. The Vols hope to once again be Final Four contenders after making it to the Elite Eight in 3 consecutive seasons, and Lundblade gives them an elite shooter to help their offense thrive.
Lundblade, who began his career at SMU before transferring to TCU, averaged 15.6 points per game this season for the Bruins.

Tennessee could bring back several key players from its 2025-26 team, including Bishop Boswell and JP Estrella. However, contributors like Ja’Kobi Gillespie, Felix Okpara and Nate Ament are not expected back next season due to either graduation or NBA Draft early entry (in Ament’s case).
In addition to adding talent via the transfer portal, Rick Barnes signed 3 high school recruits in the class of 2026. That group is led by 4-star forward Ralph Scott.
