Tennessee Football Recruiting: 5 Remaining 2017 Prospects to Watch for Vols

National Signing Day is less than a week away. With Tennessee football trying to close strong, here are five remaining recruits to watch for the Volunteers.

Tennessee football is averaging the No. 10 ranked recruiting class across most major services. They are as high as No. 9 on Rivals and as low as No. 11 on 247Sports.

However, they are right at No. 10 on ESPN and Scout.

With National Signing Day coming up, the Vols hope to have a strong finish. They already have 28 signees, but there are no five-stars on Rivals committed, and they only have nine four-stars.

So Butch Jones and Co. have a lot of work to do.

Unfortunately for them, with already such a full class, it’ll be hard for them to maintain their spot when the dust settles because they don’t have lots of room to make a splash. Meanwhile, other SEC teams have plenty of room, and some are already ranked ahead of the Vols.

The staff turnover and coaching changes likely don’t help with this.

Still, there are players that the Vols are targeting hard, and they have a chance to nail down a few of them.

As we get set to take a look at those prospects, we are zoning in on targets who are the top mix of talent and likelihood that they could commit to Tennessee.

Some of these might be slightly long shots, but they are real targets with a strong chance to commit to the Vols.

Here’s a look at the top five prospects with a real chance of committing to Tennessee football by National Signing Day next Wednesday.
