The Tennessee Vols found out on Christmas morning that they're among the top schools for one of the top cornerbacks in the nation. 

2025 four-star cornerback Jaboree Antoine included Tennessee in his top eight, along with Texas, LSU, Georgia, Alabama, Michigan, Miami, and Texas A&M.

Antoine, 6-foot-1/170 lbs from New Iberia, LA, is ranked in 247Sports' composite rankings as the No. 8 cornerback in the nation and the No. 2 player in the state of Louisiana. He's also rated as the No. 51 overall player in the 2025 recruiting class. 

The talented defensive back took an unofficial visit to Tennessee earlier this season for the Vols' win against the Texas A&M Aggies. 

"Me and Coach (Josh) Heupel have been in contact almost every day," said Antoine to On3 while discussing his top schools. "I could say he is the most down-to-earth head coach I’ve talked to. He’s a great guy.” 

Tennessee currently has four players committed to its 2025 recruiting class.
