As the Vols hosted several visitors of their own over the weekend, they also lost a long-time commitment who was on a visit to another school.
Linebacker/safety Jaquan Henderson (6-1, 200 pounds) reportedly flipped to Georgia Tech, dropping Tennessee down to 26 commitment with just over a full week remaining until National Signing Day on Feb. 1.

Henderson had been committed to Tennessee since the summer and projected as an outside linebacker for the Vols. Tennessee, however, does already have a pair of players in its 2017 class with similar skill sets in linebackers Shanon Reid (6-1, 200) and Solon Page III (6-2, 200).
National Signing Day is Wednesday, Feb. 1.
