'27 TN WR Kesean Bowman

[BreatheUT]

Miami made it to the national championship game. We looked like a mid tier team. That apparently matters to this kid in judging his interest. He loved Oregon as well. No surprise he also started being interested in Vanderbilt after the embarrassing loss to end the regular season. The bowl game on added to the question marks.

I'm old enough to remember his dad's recruitment. That one felt that way too.

Am I remembering correctly that AB is his uncle and not his father?

My son played against AB when he was at Notre Dame HS. AB was the most dominant HS receiver I ever saw. They would triple team him and their QB would throw a high lob. AB would have 3 guys hanging on him and would still go up and get it. Was very shocked he didn’t play in the SEC.

Yes. Kesean is Adarius' nephew

But I have been told by a bunch of experts here on VN that bowl games don’t matter.

If we don't sign KB, and I hope we do, we will still have a great WR room. Depending how this year's QB season goes will factor in.

Did Vandy’s bowl game cause him to pause there? This kid is going to be recruited all the way until his signature hits a LOI

So he’s going to Indiana then

Not a big enough market

 

[volKano]

Not sure we need him. Seems like players that are rumored to go anywhere when they are being recruited end up at different schools in college. Why pay him and train him for a year to watch him play the portal game the following year?

And then probably hit the portal after a year or two

what?

 

[benholt06]

Still think he ends up a Vol

Possibly

It’s cool for people to want whoever they want. This season Bowman and George’s are “must gets” supposedly.

But in 5 seasons now, Heupel has proven that QB, WR, and RB will always produce.

I will never worry about those positions under Coach Hype. We’re damn loaded at WR in 2026.

Played against him also. What school did your son attend?

Brentwood Academy wide receiver Kesean Bowman has decided to hold off after initially planning on committing this month. Kelsey Pope continues to keep Tennessee deep in this one as the battle Miami and Vanderbilt.

We have a very strong receiver room, if KB doesn't get significant playing time will he not portal? Who does he replace?

You could say this about every player at every single school in the country.

I doubt our long snapper goes anywhere.

We lose two necks year. So, id say he's well positioned.

In the current age, this part is frankly impossible to answer. But I’m sure that if he commits here he’ll be told beforehand that he will have to battle for playing time, so I doubt he’d be interested in us if that were his chief concern.
