The Tennessee Vols appear to be a legitimate threat to land a commitment from 2022 three-star wide receiver Kaleb Webb.
Webb, 6-foot-2/185 lbs from Powder Springs, GA, decommitted from ECU on Sunday after taking a visit to Tennessee this weekend.
"Coach Heupel has an explosive offense that can really help me showcase myself and put up great numbers at the SEC level," said Webb to VolQuest after his visit this weekend.
Webb, who also has offers from Louisville, Michigan, and Ole Miss (among others), is ranked by 247Sports as the No. 34 wide receiver in the country and the No. 20 overall player in Georgia.
Here's how 247Sports southeast recruiting analyst Andrew Ivins describes Webb:
A big target with legit foot speed that’s oozing with potential. Caught just a handful of passes as a junior before bursting onto the scene as a senior totaling just over 1,600 yards receiving and 18 touchdowns while playing in the Peach State’s second-highest classification. Also scored four times via the return game. One of the best in the class of 2022 when it comes to making contested catches as he is able to adjust himself in the air and attack the ball with firm hands. Excels at working the higher numbers of the route tree, but more than capable of moving the chains with quick little slants and in/out routes as he’s rather competitive after the catch and will fight for additional yardage. Should continue to fill out over the next few years and tack on some additional muscle, which will help make him an effective down-field blocker. Must continue to keep progressing, but has the skillset to emerge as go-to target on Saturdays given his size (pushing 6-foot-3) and top-end gear (sub 11 seconds in the 100-meter dash).
It sounds like Webb could be a diamond in the rough. And it also sounds like he could soon be committed to Tennessee.
