Josh Ward’s Analysis: Tennessee needed to land Slaughter after defensive back Mordecai McDaniel switched his commitment to Florida. Slaughter is a former Arizona State commitment would could play cornerback or safety for Tennessee.

Eric Cain’s Analysis: UT had a pair of defensive backs decommit late in the process, so gaining Doneiko Slaughter was a must for Jeremy Pruitt. Slaughter is good against the run and plays bigger than his frame. He’s improved his coverage skills and will provide depth early on for Tennessee’s defensive-minded coaching staff.
