Five-star Tennessee quarterback commitment George MacIntyre of Brentwood (Tenn.) Academy plans to return to Knoxville this weekend for a two-day visit with the Vols that will allow him to attend their first spring practice. He expects to be joined by an elite wide receiver who’s one of Tennessee’s top targets at the position.
MacIntyre told GoVols247 that he’s set to visit Tennessee on Sunday and Monday. He posted Thursday afternoon on his X account that five-star Class of 2025 wide receiver Jaime Ffrench, a former Alabama commitment from Mandarin High School in Jacksonville, Fla., will be there, too.
Back in Knoxville this week,” MacIntyre posted. “Special visitor will be there also @jaimeffrenchjr.”
The 6-foot-1, 185-pound Ffrench has been planning to visit Tennessee for the first time this spring. He told 247Sports’ Tom Loy last month that the Vols were scheduled to host him on April 8.
Ffrench is a five-star prospect in the industry-generated 247Sports Composite, where he’s ranked the No. 16 overall prospect and the No. 3 wide receiver in the 2025 class and the No. 3 junior from the state of Florida. According to 247Sports, he’s a four-star prospect who’s ranked the No. 30 overall player and No. 4 wide receiver in the 2025 class.
Ffrench is coming off a visit to LSU last weekend. He told 247Sports’ Steve Wiltfong after the visit that he has “set an official visit (to LSU) for the first weekend in May.”
Ohio State has received a pair of predictions for Ffrench on the 247Sports Crystal Ball. Both picks have been made since last week, with the most recent prediction coming from 247Sports’ Tom Loy on Wednesday.
Ffrench has been one of Tennessee’s top wide-receiver targets since announcing his decommitment from Alabama on Jan. 14 in the aftermath of former Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban’s retirement. MacIntyre has also spent plenty of time recruiting Ffrench for the Vols. In late February, MacIntyre specifically mentioned Ffrench, five-star offensive tackle David Sanders Jr. and four-star offensive tackle Juan Gaston as players he had been prioritizing, along with two of his Tennessee Select 7-on-7 teammates — wide receiver Radarious Jackson of Memphis, Tenn., and four-star athlete Cameron Sparks of Chattanooga, Tenn.
“I would say I’m mostly focused on the offensive side of the ball, besides the in-state kids,” MacIntyre said at the time.
