Who Have The Vols Offered In The 2025 Contact Period?
Every summer, rising juniors begin to see their recruitment heat up. College head coaches are now allowed to contact them, and June 8 marked the start of the direct contact period for college basketball. As always, we saw a handful of offers go out, with more to come this summer. While we're not doing in-depth player evaluations for the 2025 class just yet, we have a feel for some players that Tennessee is interested in.

Rick Barnes, Tennessee HC
So far, Tennessee head coach Rick Barnes has done an excellent job making sure there's a wide variety of the positions he is recruiting. As for the favorites, it's not a huge concern right now. Tennessee just reached out to these kids, and most of the favorites are local schools that were involved with the kids early. Remember, many of these kids are just starting to have their recruitment blow up, so there's plenty of time for Tennessee to jump in and prioritize some of them. Barnes has been known to make big plays down the stretch of recruiting cycles; this is just the beginning for the 2025 class.
