One of the state’s top prospects in the 2024 class, WR Braylon Staley of Aiken, announced a commitment to Tennessee this afternoon. He chose the Vols over North Carolina. Staley made official visits this month to those two along with Miami and Clemson. When Clemson offered at their junior day in late January, he appeared to be a favorite of receivers coach Tyler Grisham and head coach Dabo Swinney. But the Tigers eventually took commitments from two other receivers in TJ Moore and Bryant Wesco and are awaiting a decision from a third receiver in Mike Matthews, so their interest subsided. As for USC, the Gamecocks never made a strong play for Staley as they’ve put most of their efforts in a similar speedster in North Carolina, Jonathan Paylor. Staley is not only a top receiver, he’s also one of the state’s premier track athletes. He won the triple-jump and the 200 meters in the 4A State Championships this past spring.
