'26 NC QB Faizon Brandon (Tennessee)

[EastTNVol95]

Rivals/On3 with a Tennessee tweet? That includes the words five star?

That must've been painful for them to post.

 

[RDU VOL#14]

With our QB situation uncertain, should we be concerned about Matthews or Staley hitting the portal because they are worried about production going down w/ Aguilar potentially not coming back?

Anybody that’s in the know care to comment?

Today isn’t for worrying friend. Put that on pause for a day

Good point. Fair enough.

This has probably been talked about a million times but I don't really want to sift through to find out... But is Faizon an EE? I did see that Keys is.

Yes.

 

[Stoked]

Yes.

Oh boy.

Oh boy.

Exactly.

You know what’s about to happen.

Big rematch with Weddington NC.
This kid is about to dominate

This might be the best player/commit ever. He pledged early, never wavered, and says he can't wait to COMPETE for the starting job. Big-O welcome Faizon!

I get why some want a portal qb, but I still have high hopes that whoever emerges between him and GMac will be able to run the offense effectively next year.

 

[WesTnVol]

Excited to see what this young man can do at Tennessee!!

A CJ Leake/Tim Tebow type of combo would work for me in year 1.

Why would they give up on Faizon, Keys, Staley, Matthews. Hell, that's built for a natty.

Faizon will start next year, and get a natty in 2027. Its how the whole operation is built. If they round out Faizon, Mathews, Keys, Staley, DGG for 2027. Got dang....Gotta keep them in house.

It’s not all about a Natty unfortunately. Staley and Matthews will be 3 years removed from high school after next year, meaning they’re eligible for the draft following the 2026 year.GMAC is unproven and Faizon is an unproven True freshman against Bama, Texas, Texas A&M , Auburn, LSU, Vandy, USCjr, UK and Arkansas and GT. If I’m trying to be a productive WR and have similar #’s as this year I’d like to know who my QB is. Draft or no draft that should be a concern for everybody .

Agree. Brandon never wavered. Never even gave us any reason to question his commitment. He never took a visit. Now I hate it when some of our fans who say it’s no big deal when a committed recruit takes OVs and UOVs. Because it is a big deal. Did Fazion take visits? No. That’s what commitment really means.
