4-star WR Nick Marsh sets Tennessee visit

River Rouge (Mich.) four-star wide receiver Nick Marsh is visiting Tennessee this weekend. He announced the news Friday over Twitter.

Marsh is the No. 71 overall prospect and No. 14 wide receiver in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 3 player in Michigan.

The 6-foot-3, 200-pound wideout was previously committed to Michigan State. He backed off his pledge to the Spartans on March 7.

On March 25, Marsh visited Auburn. He already has set an official visit back to the Tigers for the weekend of June 17.

“I definitely want to get back down there,” Marsh told Jeffrey Lee of Auburn Live on March 29. “Auburn seems like a really good place to be. I wanted to make sure I get to go back and get the full experience.”

“It was really good,” he added about the visit. “I enjoyed the campus and everything. The facilities were a very good site to see. And I liked getting to talk to the coaches on a personal level.

“I enjoyed (watching practice). I got to see a lot of the players and how they get coached.”

Miami is one school that offered the four-star following his decommitment from Michigan State. He was “pretty excited” to receive it and is interested in the Hurricanes going forward.

“I thought it was a really great area,” Marsh told Stephen Wagner of CaneSport about his last visit to Coral Gables “Great area, it was pretty hot down there. There was a lot about Miami (standing) out, just the trees and the weather and the campus had a lot going on, so there was good energy. It was a pretty good vibe when I was there.”

Tennessee is off to a great start in the 2024 cycle

At the moment, Tennessee’s 2024 recruiting class contains six players. It ranks No. 6 in the 2024 On3 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings and No. 4 in the SEC.
