Tennessee is scheduled to host the No. 1 offensive tackle in the nation this weekend.

Five-star offensive tackle Brandon Baker will headline Tennessee’s recruiting weekend, according to Keegan Pope of On3.

It will be Baker’s first visit to Tennessee.

The 6-foot-5, 285-pound offensive tackle is from Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana, California.

Baker is the No. 23 overall prospect in the class of 2024. He ranks as the No. 1 offensive tackle and No. 1 player in California, according to 247Sports.

He earned second-team MaxPreps Junior All-American honors and was named first-team All-County by the Orange County Register last season. Baker also earned second-team MaxPreps Sophomore All-American honors in 2021.
