Tennessee pulled off one of the most stunning flips of the recruiting cycle yet. 4-star defensive tackle Tyre West flipped from Georgia to Tennessee on Early Signing Day.

While West was committed to Georgia for almost the entire cycle, it became common knowledge that he would not sign with them when Early Signing Day rolled around. He was checking out his options and surveying where he could go. For a long time, it looked like Florida State.

When I say “long time”, I mean all the way up until his signing ceremony. FSU was the heavy favorite for months.
