Tennessee remains in the hunt for highly ranked four-star linebacker Trenton Simpson, landing inside of his top five schools this weekend. Simpson, a 6-2, 220 pound prospect out of Charlotte, North Carolina, included Miami, North Carolina, Auburn and Georgia, along with the Vols in his top choices on Friday night.
Simpson is the 33rd ranked player in the 2020 class, according to 247 Sports. He’s the second ranked player out of the state of North Carolina and the third ranked off-ball linebacker prospect.
Tennessee offered Simpson in January and got him on campus for a junior day event shortly after.
