Tennessee football’s 2026 class is coming into form in a hurry.
As of the morning of July 12, the Vols hold 21 commitments in the class due to a pair of announcements since Wednesday and four since the start of the week. While there are still multiple highly-touted prospects remaining on the board, the rankings across the country are beginning to get clearer for the cycle.

No. 15 overall
No. 6 SEC (Behind Georgia, Texas A&M, LSU, Alabama, Florida)
