Dominick McKinley Has Big Weeks Upcoming

2024 five-star defensive lineman Dominick McKinley (Lafayette, La.) will officially visit the Tennessee Volunteers in January after delaying his signing.

Five-star defensive lineman Dominick McKinley did not sign his national letter of intent on early signing day. The Texas A&M commit has seemingly reopened his recruitment after staff changes in College Station, Texas. He continues to build relationships with the new Texas A&M coaching staff, but Tennessee and LSU will get official visits in January.

Reports have flown in from 247Sports' Steve Wiltfong that McKinley has been in contact with many schools and plans to take an official visit to Tennessee in January. The expected date for the official visit is January 20th for the Alabama vs. Tennessee basketball game inside of Thompson-Boling Arena at Food City Center.

Tennessee already held an in-home visit with the five-star earlier this month as defensive coordinator Tim Banks and defensive line coach Rodney Garner visited the defensive lineman. His mother made it very clear when talking to 247Sports that there was no chance of him signing his early signing day papers. Although Tennessee has him scheduled for a visit, there will be stiff competition moving forward. He will be around Tennessee commits all week at the Under Armour All-American Game, which should play in the Vols' favor.
