Nate Evans committed to Tennessee on Nov. 10.
Evans, a class of 2021 athlete, is from Frank W. Cox High School in Virginia Beach, Va. The 2021 prospect was initially offered by the Vols on June 15, 2019 when he attended a camp at Tennessee.
Frank W. Cox High School head coach Bill Stachelski discussed Evans with Vols Wire and what Tennessee is getting with the 6-foot-1, 175-pound athlete.
“Nate is a defensive back/wide receiver,” Stachelski said. “He did not play much last season due to injury (knee), but he played a lot as a sophomore, mostly at corner.
“He is a pretty big body and can run very well and he is knowledgeable in the area of technique.”
Defensive back is in Evans’ bloodline as he is the younger brother of Levonta Taylor who played cornerback for Florida State and is entering the 2020 NFL Draft. His other brother is 2020 TCU cornerback signee Keontae Jenkins.
“He (Evans) competes well and has two older brothers Levonta Taylor and Keontae Jenkins. Nate needs to continue to get into game shape and begin the grind of practice to get back up to speed, but we are expecting big things from him as a senior.”
