Title: John Kelly just committed

He's a 3-star RB. Given our numbers situation, I'm puzzled by that one.

Yep, and the staff favored Kelly over some others, like Bryce Love.

When all is said and done, how many signees are the Vols supposed to be getting? I know we signed a buttload last year too.

He's rated a 4 star on some services. Good get IMO.

Ranked by 247Sports as the nation’s No. 38 athlete recruit and No. 5 prospect overall in the state of Michigan, the 5-foot-10, 203-pound Kelly will play running back in Knoxville.

“They’re getting a phenomenal athlete with a great work ethic,” Kelly’s position coach at Oak Park and personal trainer Darryl Graham said. “Very determined and not only that, they’re getting a great kid overall. Great personality, great sense of humor, he can interact with anyone, but most importantly his great work ethic and determination to be the best.”
