Summary

GoVols247's Patrick Brown and Ryan Callahan break down the Vols making a big splash in recruiting by landing four-star in-state wide receiver Kesean Bowman, a former Oregon commitment who is a top-100 overall player in the 2027 cycle for 247Sports.

We discuss how the Vols landed Bowman after a winding recruitment, what kind of player Tennessee is getting and how he could fit into the offense when he gets to campus.
