Four-star receiver Alontae Taylor decommitted from Tennessee on Sunday following the firing of Butch Jones.

The isn't good news for whoever eventually replaces Jones, as Taylor would have been a valuable asset going forward. A Tennessee native, Taylor was ranked 46th on the ESPN 300 and second in the state.

Taylor wasn't the only player to decommit from the Volunteers on Sunday. Defensive back Tanner Ingle, defensive end Dorian Gerald, and wideout Shocky Jacques-Louis also pulled out, according to Gerry Hamilton of ESPN.
