Things have been going well on the recruiting trail this week for Josh Heupel and the Tennessee Vols, and they could be about to get even better in the near futur, according to On3 Sports recruiting insider Steve Wiltfong.
Wiltfong issued a prediction on Saturday for the Vols to land the services of four-star Forney, TX (North Forney) athlete Legend Bey.
Bey took an official visit to Tennessee earlier this month, the same weekend as five-stars Faizon Brandon and Tristen Keys came to town. He took a picture with the top targets for the Vols and said on social media that his official visit was "amazing".
Bey is a four-star player in On3 Sports' industry ratings. He's the #13 athlete in their rankings and the #37 player overall in the state of Texas. He holds offers from Ohio State, Notre Dame, Oregon, Georgia, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Texas A&M, West Virginia, Missouri, Baylor, SMU, and Texas Tech, among many others.
Bey is a smaller player at 5'9", 170 pounds, but he appears to project as a wide receiver at the college level. That's in large part because he's extremely fast and electric with the ball in his hands, able to line up in multiple spots and particularly thrive in a screen and jet sweep/motion set.
It doesn't hurt that Faizon Brandon is coming to throw players the ball, and it appears to have Bey's attention. As such, one has to wonder if a "legendary" connection could be in the works down the line with that duo.
