I definitely plan on coming back to Rocky Top for an official visit.” Jenkins caught up with Volunteer Country shortly after he announced his official visit plans to break down what he’s looking forward to this time. “I look forward to just being back at Rocky Top it gave me a feeling like no other,” he said. “What makes Tennessee unique is the coaching staff they are just well rounded and they care so much about not just an athlete but a person.” He talked more about his expectations and what he plans to do on his trip. “I’m looking forward to communicating with everyone. Like I said, they care a lot, and you don’t get that from every school. “He has made it clear that the visit will be important. “This will be a big factor because I get to see everything and get deeper into what they have to offer.” Jenkins ranks as the No. 214 prospect in the 2025 class, according to the 247Sports’ Composite Rankings.
