Summary
- Baylor Allen committed to Vanderbilt on November 18.
- Allen helped Providence Christian Academy win a state championship.
- He joins two other signees, Sheffield and Hawkins, in the 2026 class.

The Vanderbilt Commodores' 2026 recruiting class is expanding, with the recent addition of guard Baylor Allen. Allen, a promising prospect from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, officially committed on November 18 after an official visit. He brings speed and sharpshooting skills to the backcourt, having recently helped Providence Christian Academy secure a state championship.
Standing at 6-foot-1 and 155 lbs, Allen is a dynamic player for Providence Christian Academy, which is ranked among the top teams in Tennessee. His commitment is particularly significant as he is teammates with 4-star small forward Christopher Washington, Jr. This existing connection could benefit Vanderbilt's recruitment efforts.
Allen's pledge brings Vanderbilt's 2026 class to five prospects. Two players, center Jackson Sheffield and guard Mavrick Hawkins, have already signed their letters of intent. Sheffield, a physical presence, and Hawkins, an athletic guard, further solidify Vanderbilt's recruiting momentum.
