The Tennessee Volunteers’ 2016 recruiting class received a HUGE boost on Wednesday afternoon with the commitment of four-star stud quarterback Jarrett Guarantano.
Tennessee’s latest commitment has the potential to be a star on Rocky Top, so it’s understandable why fans, and the UT coaches, were so excited by Guarantano’s decision.
Check out the coy reactions on Twitter by the Vol coaching staff.
Bricks Stacking!!! Yup that's the sound!! We got better today!

I’m going to have to give defensive line coach Steve Stripling the award for best tweet of the day. Throwing out an old school Ric Flair reference is always a guaranteed hit.
And then there’s the fact that Stripling looks like he could’ve been a member of the four horsemen at one point.
I mean look at that intensity. Tell me he couldn’t have walked out beside Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard (photo via @DAVIDCARROLL3)
WHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
