Tennessee 2021 signees surge in final 247Sports rankings update

Tennessee has quickly turned into a recruiting power in the college basketball world, landing back to back top five classes. Rick Barnes has capitalized on the success of Grant Williams and Admiral Schofield to land five five-star prospects over the last three years — two more of those coming in this class.

In the final rankings update at 247Sports, a couple of Tennessee signees made huge leaps up the board. Point guard Kennedy Chandler became a top ten player, while center Jonas Aidoo cracked the top 50.

Here’s a look at where everyone landed.
