The Tennessee Volunteers landed 4-star dual-threat QB Kaidon Salter as one of the key members of their 2021 recruiting class.
On Friday afternoon, though, they also added another quarterback to that class as a preferred walk-on.
As you can see below, Sullivan McDermott, a QB from Marvin Ridge High School in North Carolina, announced on Twitter that he was forgoing his senior season to enroll at Tennessee:

McDermott will be a preferred walk-on for the Vols. In addition to McDermott and Salter, the Vols also added Virginia Tech transfer QB Hendon Hooker to the mix this offseason.
McDermott has yet to be rated by any of the major recruiting services. Tennessee’s 2021 recruiting class ranked No. 15 in the nation and No. 6 in the SEC, per 247Sports.
