Keon Johnson’s long anticipated commitment went exactly as planned for Rick Barnes and the Tennessee Volunteers. The homegrown talent opted to stay home on Tuesday night, committing to Tennessee’s 2020 class.
It was Tennessee’s 2nd commitment inside of the top 35, adding to Corey Walker, who ranks 34th overall in the class. Johnson himself ranks 31st. The new commitment slots the Vols inside of the top five in the 2020 class rankings, according to 247 Sports.
The even better news? Tennessee isn’t done in this class.
Barnes is after a handful of 2020 guys, even after the Johnson commitment.
