"The 5-foot-10.5, 173-pound Cotman chose the Vols over scholarship offers from more than 30 other teams, including Notre Dame, North Carolina, Ohio State and Ole Miss, giving Tennessee its 21st commitment for the 2017 class and its third in the past two days."

"Kevin Punter will sign with Lavrio in Greece, the former Tennessee All-SEC guard said Wednesday afternoon.A 6-foot-2 native of Bronx, N.Y., Punter made the most of his two seasons at Tennessee after arriving from State Fair Community College in Missouri. After playing in 32 games with 31 starts at the shooting guard spot and averaging 10.3 points per game as a junior, Punter embraced a new position (point guard) and a new shooting stroke under a new coach (Rick Barnes) and became a star as a senior."
