Tennessee stayed scorching-hot on the recruiting trail Friday afternoon with a commitment from three-star cornerback Onis Konanbanny. The No. 43 cornerback in the Class of 2025 chose Tennessee over fellow finalist Florida State.
Konanbanny is the third prospect to commit to Tennessee in the past week and further cements the Vols’ top-10 recruiting class in the 247Sports Team Composite rankings.
“It’s home,” Konanbanny told 247Sports. “They’ve been with me since Day 1. I feel like I belong there. I love how the coaching staff has treated me. They have treated me like a son, like one of their own. They have genuine love for me as a person.”

According to 247Sports Director of Scouting Andrew Ivins, Konanbanny possesses plenty of growth potential. Here’s his full scouting report:
Size has not been third-party verified, but in-person evaluations suggest that he’s over six feet and thick through the core. Displays explosive tendencies in the lower half while getting snaps on both defense and offense. Comfortable in press-man and will use his hands to redirect assignments. Can anticipate and jump routes, but needs to keep improving technique and his transitions. Highlight reel shows a player that isn’t afraid to pop someone, but game tape suggests he could improve as an open field tackler. Has developed some ball skills while doubling as a wide receiver, but needs to get better…
