Trio of Programs Separating For David Sanders Jr.

2025 five-star offensive tackle David Sanders Jr. (Charlotte, N.C.) has the Tennessee Volunteers among his top choices.

Providence Day offensive tackle David Sanders Jr. has yet to make any public recruitment cuts, but the Tennessee Volunteers will be at the forefront of it when he does. The Vols have done an excellent job positioning themselves and have done it with consistent communication and a pitch centered around playing time and a family atmosphere. 

On3's Keegan Pope wrote a story confirming that three schools are setting the pace in the race for Sanders. Clemson, Georgia, and Tennessee are the programs with momentum, though there are other suitors in the race.

"I think David Sanders is genuinely intrigued by Georgia, but I think Tennessee and Clemson have positioned themselves the best heading into a big slate of spring visits and then summertime official visits. He was at Clemson for a junior day, and I think that went very well. If you watch that interview, you can tell that David is very interested in Tennessee, he’s very detailed in his process and how he’s looking at the Vols. From graduate assistants all the way up to Josh Heupel and guys coming in with this 2024 class. Tennessee certainly has David Sanders’ interest right now, and he’s another guy who has a really close relationship with George MacIntyre." - On3's Matt Ray on David Sanders Jr.
