ESPN revealed their updated 2023-24 college basketball top 25 rankings this week and the Tennessee Vols dropped a spot.
Tennessee was previously ranked No. 5 in ESPN's top 25 rankings. The Vols are No. 6 in the updated rankings.
From ESPN: Tennessee is one of the biggest winners of the offseason, landing Jordan Gainey (South Carolina Upstate), Chris Ledlum (Harvard) and Dalton Knecht (Northern Colorado), while also getting All-SEC guard Santiago Vescovi and veteran starter Josiah-Jordan James back for another year. The Volunteers should have more perimeter pop than they've had the past few seasons, combined with what should be an elite defense when Zakai Zeigler is healthy.
The Vols came up short last season, falling to Florida Atlantic in the Sweet 16. But it looks like expectations will once again be high for the Vols in 2023-24.
Tennessee gets key players like Santiago Vescovi and Josiah Jordan-James back while adding talented players like Jordan Gainey, Chris Ludlum, and Dalton Knect.
The roster has the talent to to make a Final Four run as long as Tennessee can find success on offense more consistently this upcoming season than they did last year because we all know the defense will be there for the Vols.
