When you bring in two straight Top 5 recruiting classes, load up on elite junior college players in another class, and find multiple steals in another class, you’re naturally going to be loaded with impact players. Such is the case for Tennessee football heading into the 2016 season.
Butch Jones has stocked the roster beyond what any Vols fan could have imagined. As a result, the program is loaded with talented athletes now.
From versatile linemen to defensive playmakers to offensive flash to special teams, Tennessee has impact players all over the field. There are 10 Vols on preseason award watch lists, and at least another six or seven have the potential to win postseason awards.
