Tennessee will have to beat out rival Alabama for this defensive back, but the Vols are officially on the board for cornerback Kevin Knowles out of Hollywood, Fla.

— Kevin Knowles II (@flexxkp5) February 5, 2020
Knowles is a 3-star cornerback rated No. 43 in his position on the 247Sports Composite, but has an impressive offer list.
Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, Penn State, Clemson and several other major Power 5 programs want the 5-foot-10, 168-pound corner.
Tennessee only has one cornerback committed in the 2021 class in Jay Jones out of Alabama, so the Vols will look to add depth to that position in next year’s haul.
Defensive quality control analyst Jeremiah Wilson will be key in Tennessee’s recruitment of Knowles down the stretch.
