I just gave that a read, too. They seem to be relying on the 247 interview Horton gave after he returned at the end of June for some BBQ.
He brought his mother with him to that visit. She didn't go with him the first time he visited at the beginning of June.
Horton said Heupel and Burns told him during his latest visit to Knoxville “how much of a priority I am” and “how they want me to get down to UT and change the program around.”
The visit convinced Horton that the Vols are moving in the right direction under Heupel,
“They have great things in store, especially for the offense,” Horton said earlier this month. “It’s an (uptempo) offense. Their tempo is very different. I’d say it was more so the players that caught my attention more than the coaches, because I enjoyed being with the coaches. But I was more so with the players, so I think that’s how they wanted me to play it out — hear it more from the players than from the coaches.”
Earlier this month, he said there was at least a chance he would take official visits to a few schools this fall before picking a school because he didn't "know if I'll be done with all my visits this summer." But he said he "should be committed by, like, end of July" if he's able to take the visits he wants "and everything falls in place."
IDK - I think it could be Tennessee after reading more. Would be a nice surprise if he picks the Canes
