A 2025 four-star Tennessee Vols commit will reportedly visit one of UT's top SEC rivals this week.
According to Rivals.com's Adam Gorney, 2025 four-star cornerback Onis Konanbanny is planning to visit Florida on Saturday for the Gators' matchup against the Ole Miss Rebels.
Konanbanny has been committed to Tennessee since late August.
Konanbanny, 6-foot-1/180 lbs from Columbia, SC (he's originally from France), is rated in 247Sports' composite rankings as the No. 31 cornerback in the nation and the No. 7 player in the state of South Carolina.
Scouting report via 247Sports: Big-framed defensive back that has some of the tools required to shade the perimeter, but could also settle in as a safety at the next level. Has a unique background as he was born in Europe and played soccer throughout his youth before making his way across the pond in 2022. Size has not been third-party verified, but in-person evaluations suggest that he’s over six feet and thick through the core. Displays explosive tendencies in the lower half while getting snaps on both defense and offense. Comfortable in press-man and will use his hands to redirect assignments. Can anticipate and jump routes, but needs to keep improving technique and his transitions. Highlight reel shows a player that isn’t afraid to pop someone, but game tape suggests he could improve as an open field tackler. Has developed some ball skills while doubling as a wide receiver, but needs to get better at locating the football in coverage. Overall, should be viewed as a green international cornerback with multi-year Power Four starter upside that must keep progressing as he will see a serious uptick in competition on Saturdays.
247Sports' Blake Alderman reported on Friday that Konanbanny's trip to Gainesville is an official visit.
This is certainly a development to monitor for Vols fans. You never know what might happen once a player takes an official visit to a rival program.
Tennessee's 2025 recruiting class is currently ranked No. 7 in the nation.
