Based on current rankings - understanding that other programs will see ranking changes as well.

The Vols currently have 21 Commits and 2,267 Total Points. Rivals only allows 20 recruits. This means if the Vols add two recruits, two recruits must fall off.

According to Rivals, this is how player ranking points are assigned:

6.1 = 150 points

6.0 = 135 points

5.9 = 120 points

5.8 = 105 points

5.7 = 90 points

5.6 = 75 points

5.5 = 60 points

5.4 = 45 points

5.3 = 30 points

5.2 = 15 points

So, Evans is a 6.1, and would be worth an additional 150 Points. Wideman is a 6.0, and would be worth an additional 135 points. So the Vols would be +285.

The Vols would see Reginald Perry and Tee Hodge removed - both 5.6 rated and worth 75 points each. So, the Vols would also be -150.

+285 - 150 = +135

2,267 + 135 = 2,402 Total Points

2,402 Total Points would currently equal the #7 Ranked Class in the Country
