Tennessee basketball is preparing for a massive recruiting weekend where they’ll host a trio of top targets on visits. Five-star wing Caleb Wilson and four-star combo guard Isaiah Denis are each coming in for official visits while four-star Amari Evans is unofficially visiting.
Wilson ranks as a five-star recruit and the No. 5 player in the country according to the 247sports composite rankings. The Vols have long coveted the Atlanta native and even hosted him on an unofficial visit last fall. But the Vols are swimming in extremely deep waters for the five-star recruit.
The 6-foot-9 wing has already taken official visits to Central Florida, Kentucky, Auburn and North Carolina while he has another scheduled to local Georgia Tech for later this fall.
Denis ranks as a four-star recruit and the No. 62 player in the country according to the 247sports composite rankings. The 6-foot-5 combo guard is one of the Vols’ top point guard targets in the entire 2025 recruiting cycle.
The Davidson, North Carolina native is down to a top seven of North Carolina, Ohio State, Miami, Pitt, Kansas, Tennessee and Wake Forest but it’s a more narrow race than that. Dennis has taken fall official visits to Ohio State, Michigan, North Carolina and Wake Forest.
Denis is announcing his college commitment in early November and it certainly doesn’t hurt Tennessee’s chances to get the final visit. The home state schools, North Carolina and Wake Forest, are the Vols’ top competition at the moment.
Like Denis, Evans already has his commitment date set for early November. The 6-foot-5 wing is down to a top group of Pitt, Xavier and Tennessee. This is Evans second visit to Tennessee this fall after he officially visited the weekend of the Chattanooga football game.
Evans ranks as a four-star recruit and the No. 74 player in the country according to the 247sports composite rankings.
Tennessee basketball currently holds one commit in its 2025 recruiting class and it comes from four-star center DeWayne Brown. The Hoover, Alabama native committed to the Vols over Mississippi State back in April. Brown’s commitment gives Tennessee the No. 52 recruiting class in the 2025 recruiting cycle according to the 247sports team rankings.
The Vols are after a number of other top recruits including five-star power forward Chris Cenac, five-star combo guard Brayden Burries and five-star power forward Nate Ament.
