Now that the 2025 football season is officially here, Tennessee football fans are rightfully fired up to see what Josh Heupel and his players can get done on the gridiron. As everyone knows, though, Heupel is also going to be working overtime off of it on the recruiting trail.

Thankfully, the Vols have been setting up visits with plenty of elite prospects both for the 2026 and 2027 classes. This includes '27 offensive tackle Kennedy Brown, a 5-star playmaker from Humble, Texas. While we don't know exactly which weekend Brown will be heading to Knoxville, he told reporter Nate Gravender that he'll be making the trip to UT at some point this fall.
