Clark Lea and the Commodores have put together a strong offseason thus far on the recruiting trail. As of now, Vanderbilt holds eight commitments in the 2026 recruiting class and is expected to welcome a massive amount of talented prospects for official visits this summer.

While the list of summer visitors is already an impressive bunch, Lea and his staff have continued to stay active and, this week, added another name to the list.

According to On3, 4-Star safety Blake Stewart from Woodward Academy in Atlanta, Georgia is set to make an official visit to Nashville on June 6th. He will join current Commodores commit Kahden Smith as well as four other prospects for the weekend.

Standing at 5-foot-11, 170 lbs., Stewart is speedy prospect with the ability to cover a wide range as a safety. While he is certainly an impressive prospect on the defensive end, he has also shown the abillity to lineup as a wide receiver.

As a junior in 2024, Stewart finished with nearly 500 receiving yards and three touchdowns as well as 80 tackles, two interceptions and eight pass deflections.

He is rated by 247Sports' composite ranking as the No. 23 safety in the nation and the No. 37 player in the state of Georgia. If Lea and the staff were able to land a commitment from Stewart, it would be a massive boost to what is already looking like a strong class.
