The Vols again made a good impression on Franklin this weekend. It was his fifth trip to Tennessee since November 2021, and he has been high on the Vols throughout his recruitment. They made it clear to him this weekend how important he is to them, and they told him they envision him playing strongside defensive end for them. He said Tennessee has been one of his top schools for a while now, and the Vols are still up there, but he has two or three other official visits planned — including at least one in September — and there's a chance he will wait until the fall to make a decision. But he said his timeline for a commitment remains up in the air for now.
