The Tennessee Volunteers were able to strike gold on the recruiting trail on back-to-back days, proving once again why head coach Butch Jones is an ace recruiter. On Monday, Tee Higgins, who ranks as the top high school prospect in the state of Tennessee for the 2017 class, pledged to stay home and play his college football on Rocky Top.

Higgins’ announcement followed another huge announcement for Tennessee on Sunday when Brownsburg, Ind., 5-star quarterback, Hunter Johnson, also pledged his future services to the Vols.
