2026 four-star defensive lineman Carter Luckie (Norcross, Ga.) is currently visiting the Tennessee Volunteers.

Norcross High School defensive lineman Carter Luckie is one of the top defenders in the 2026 class, which means that Tennessee defensive line coach Rodney Garner has already been recruiting him. Luckie is the younger brother of Georgia Bulldogs tight end Lawson Luckie, who will be an important part of their rotation this season.

According to the On3 Industry Rankings, the younger Luckie is the No. 96 prospect in the 2026 class. He has offers from schools such as Auburn, Georgia, Missouri, Pittsburgh, and Tennessee. He's made several trips to Knoxville, Tennessee, and uploaded a photo to his Instagram story on Thursday afternoon, showing that he was in Knoxville. There's still plenty of time in this recruitment, though pulling Luckie away from the in-state Bulldogs would be hard. However, Garner will do his best and continue to invest in this one, as Luckie has physically developed and continues to improve throughout high school. We'll see where this one goes.
