Well, this isn’t the way you want to start the day, but 3-star (per 247Sports) athlete Anthony Grant, whose Twitter bio identifies him as a Tennessee commit and includes a pinned tweet from June 25 saying he is committed to the Vols, reportedly announced this morning that he has changed his mind and will go to FSU:
BREAKING: First flip of #NSD2018… 4-star ATH Anthony Grant has flipped from the #Vols to #FSU. Grant to the #Noles.

Grant actually committed to Butch Jones, and he has reportedly been wavering for some time, although the latest concern was that he would choose Virginia Tech over the Vols. Regardless, he’s going somewhere other than Rocky Top. Best of luck to him.
While this isn’t the way you want to start the day, it’s not a shock. The Vols are still in the mix for some great players today. There are three players scheduled to announce at 10:00 a.m.: 5-star cornerback Tyson Campbell, 3-star safety Trevon Flowers, and 3-star defensive end John Mincey.
