Tennessee football: Mississippi 2020 athlete Jimmy Holiday flips from TCU to Vols

It was a morning of athletes for Tennessee football during the early signing period. After picking up Len’Neth Whitehead out of Athens, Ga., the Vols flipped another athlete who hails from the great state of Mississippi.

Jimmy Holiday, out of Flora, Miss., flipped his commitment to UT Wednesday morning. Coming out of Madison Central High School, Holiday had been committed to the TCU Horned Frogs for over four months.

However, Rocky Top had been making a play for him in recent weeks, and the momentum was on their side. Holiday announced his change to Tennessee football Wednesday morning during a ceremony, and then he revealed it on Twitter.
