Tennessee made a big splash in the class of 2026 on Thursday afternoon.
The Vols picked up a commitment from 5-star athlete Salesi Moa. The Utah native is now one of Tennessee’s highest-ranked commits in the class of 2026.
He shared the news of his commitment with Rivals’ Hayes Fawcett:
Moa is a huge pickup for the Vols. He’s the No. 31 overall player and the No. 2 athlete in the country for the class of 2026, per 247Sports Composite rankings. He’s also the No. 1 player from the state of Utah.
Moa attends Fremont High School in Ogden, Utah. He’s listed at 6-foot-2, 190 pounds. Moa could play either wide receiver or defensive back at the next level. His primary recruiter from Tennessee has been wide receivers coach Kelsey Pope, according to 247Sports.

Moa chose Tennessee over programs such as Michigan, Oklahoma, Utah and many more.
The Early Signing Period for the class of 2026 is scheduled to begin in December.
