Rick Barnes may have secured the greatest recruiting class in history for Tennessee basketball in 2021, and he’s already got a head start on 2022 with the commitment of four-star guard B.J. Edwards. However, he’s clearly not resting.

The Vols made the cut for two more elite 2022 prospects this week. It started on Monday, when UT made the top 10 for South Carolina forward Julian Phillips. Three days later, though, they made the top five for Florida guard Jalen Hood-Schifino.
