Tennessee adds to top recruiting class with commitment from big-time North Carolina athlete
Tennessee is one team that may not want quarantining from the COVID-19 to end, because the Vols have been on a recruiting tear for the class of 2021.
Four-star athlete Kaemen Marley (Ramseur, N.C.) added to the Vols top-ranked recruiting class Wednesday night. The 6-foot-2, 206-pound do-it-all is ranked as the nation’s No. 146 overall player, the No. 5 overall athlete and North Carolina’s No. 8 overall prospect, according to 247Sports Composite Rankings.
The top athlete committed to the Vols over offers from North Carolina, NC State, Kentucky and Ohio State, among others. That’s a big coup for Jeremy Pruitt and the Vols, as Marley could excel at a number of positions. He could be a big weapon at receiver, or he could play in the secondary.
Tennessee offered February 1, and despite not visiting yet, Marley committed to the Vols via Twitter.

Tennessee currently has 22 commitments for the class of 2021, and the Vols are ranked No. 2 in the nation only behind Ohio State. The next highest rated SEC class is Florida at No. 6 with 15 commitments.

How is #2 the top?
Headline should be “top SEC,” not “top.”
It’s implied when talking about the SEC, it’s the top. I mean, not exactly much of a debate which conference has the best teams, fans, talent, and venues.
You’ve just argued my point. If it’s implied that the SEC is the top and so top of the SEC is the top of the world, then this headline is as misleading as I said it is. Because the current top recruiting class is not in the SEC.
If this is all you have to complain about, life is good! Relax.
what?
wot?

Got the leghumpers real jealous…UT is paying top shelf money now, maybe even paying more than Satan at Bama.
Is this the best you can do? if you want to throw shade that’s fine… but you are a one trick pony… You should invest some of your cash in new material.
You out to be proud of out spending Bama and Georgia…I try to shed light on the obvious hypocrisy in college athletics,referring to athletes as Amateurs when they are bought by the highest bidder. A noble purpose; plus I enjoy being a professional troll.
New flash: you’re not shedding light on anything other than the fact that you are a mid-tier troll.
A nice addition here. Soon a few of the lower ranked commits will need to move on to make room for a few more higher ranked ones. I hate when that stuff happens but it’s the way recruiting is managed. Most of the kids know but some are caught off guard. Gotta be able to read the tea leaves in this business.
I agree but I wonder if Pruitt likes them enough to keep. Unless of course a five star comes around. I think he’s a really good evaluator and doesn’t worry as much about there rankings. Probably factoring transfers as well I guess?
It’s been a while since UT has had a problem so sweet. Continue recruiting and everything will work itself out in the end. Nothing’s official until that National letter of intent is signed, sealed, and delivered. This is been the best spring ever under the worst possible conditions. Go Vols! Vol4Life
