2021 quarterback Sullivan McDermott has committed to Tennessee.
The 6-foot-4, 205-pound signal-caller is from Marvin Ridge High School in Waxhaw, North Carolina.

McDermott does not field any Power Five scholarship offers, but has received interest from Michigan State, North Carolina State, North Carolina and Virginia.
McDermott thanked Tennessee inside linebackers coach Brian Niedermeyer for a conversation regarding his preferred walk-on opportunity with the Vols.
“After a great talk with coach Brian Niedermeyer, I am very grateful and excited to have the opportunity to play football at the next level with a PWO offer from the University of Tennessee,” McDermott said on Dec. 11.
