Tennessee football added perhaps its biggest commitment to date in the Class of 2024 Monday evening.

The Vols beat out the likes of Alabama, Texas, Georgia and Florida for 5-star edge Jordan Ross, one of the top defenders in the country. Ross is considered to be the No. 12 overall prospect in the Class of 2024 and the No. 2 edge rusher in the cycle, as well as the No. 1 player out of Alabama.

He is now Tennessee’s highest-rated addition to the defensive line and the Vols’ highest-rated prospect in the 2024 cycle so far.

Ross has uber-impressive athleticism that could be put to use well in Tennessee’s LEO position. The rising high school senior stands at 6-4, 233 pounds and hails from Birmingham, Alabama.

The Vols have added 3 top 100 prospects in the past month alone: Ross, 5-star WR Mike Matthews and 4-star OL Bennett Warren.
