Talked to a source on Friday evening regarding five-star quarterback
Nicholaus Iamaleava's visit to Tennessee this past weekend, and 247Sports was told the Vols "knocked it out of the park."
The source added a return visit is on the radar for April 9.
Tennessee is battling Oregon for Iamaleava. The Ducks were considered the favorite following a visit in January, but the Vols have always been a factor and 247Sports wrote going into the visit that the SEC program could change the narrative.
Another source says Iamaleava at one point was talking up Oregon to his peers but that's now shifted to the Vols.
Iamaleava raved about the visit to GoVols247 insider Ryan Callahan. He spoke highly about the SEC program even before his visit.
“I love the family environment (at Tennessee)," Iamaleava told 247Sports at the Battle 7v7 event in Miami. "The fans are great. Signed my first autograph there. That was cool. I’ve been in touch with Coach Heupel and Coach Halzle, it’s been a cool six months now. We’ve built a great relationship.”
