"I de-committed yesterday (Friday), and I committed to Tennessee last night," Meredith said.
Meredith admitted that something didn't feel right about UNC after the news officially broke that Everett Withers was being replaced by Fedora.
Even though there's a good chance Tar Heel tight ends coach Allen Mogridge might get retained by Fedora, Meredith prefers to hang his hat in Knoxville.
He cites the coaches on Derek Dooley's staff, and the comfort he feels with Tennessee, as the big reasons for the switch.
"Just the coaching staff (at UT), and it felt like home. It just didn't feel right in my heart (at UNC anymore), and Tennessee felt right," he said.
