2026 five-star quarterback Faizon Brandon (Greensboro, N.C.) has been predicted to the Tennessee Volunteers by another college football recruiting expert.

Greensboro High School quarterback Faizon Brandon is one of the early national prospects in the 2026 class. The Tennessee Volunteers identified him as their top priority in the class last summer and have been working hard since. 247Sports' Tom Loy predicted him to Tennessee on Wednesday, which should only bolster their pursuits.

The Vols also got some affirmation in their position in this race on Monday; On3's Steve Wiltfong logged a prediction for Tennessee to land Brandon, the first major prediction in the industry surronding the talented North Carolina native.

He's got a busy summer with trips planned to Alabama, LSU, Ohio State, Penn State, and Tennessee, and he began the schedule with a weekend in Knoxville, Tennessee. Head coach Josh Heupel and company identified him as their No. 1 priority early in his recruiting cycle, which has paid dividends with him.

Brandon visited Tennessee for three games this past season, watching their wins against South Carolina and Texas A&M while returning for a home loss against the Georgia Bulldogs. He also visited Rocky Top in April, marking five times he's seen the Vols. Brandon has indicated that he plans to cut his recruitment ahead of his junior season, and Tennessee seems to be in a good position.
