The Tennessee men's basketball team will add a second signee to its class of 2010 on Tuesday.

Trae Golden, a 6-foot-1 point guard from McEachern High School in Powder Springs, Ga., sent a text message to the News Sentinel on Monday morning indicating that he will sign at a 10:30 a.m. ceremony at his high school Tuesday.

Golden is rated the No. 55 player in the Rivals 150.

Jordan McRae, a 6-6 shooting guard from Liberty County High School in Midway, Ga., signed with the Vols on Thursday. McRae is rated the No. 6 shooting guard in the nation by Scout.com, and Rivals.com has him ranked as the No. 42 player in the nation on its Rivals 150 list.

Golden and McRae are teammates on the Atlanta Celtics AAU team.

Wednesday was the first day of the November “early” signing period, and it runs through this coming Wednesday.

The Vols are still in the running for 6-8 power forward Tobias Harris, the No. 5 player in the nation according to Rivals. Harris, from Dix Hills, N.Y., has said he will sign Wednesday and announce his decision on Thursday.
