Butch Jones has been accused of putting quantity over quality for the 2017 Tennessee football recruiting class, but at least three guys generated national buzz over the weekend.
The 2017 Parade All-Americans included one commit for the Vols on the official roster and two more earning honorable mentions.
Matthew Butler, a three-star defensive end on Rivals committed to the Vols, was the one guy who was named to the official team.
The other two guys who received honorable mentions were Trey Smith, an in-state four-star offensive lineman on Rivals and the star of the class according to most services, and Solon Page III, a three-star outside linebacker on Rivals.
