4-star linebacker Will Ignont commits to Tennessee

Butch Jones and Tennessee are having a great Wednesday evening after adding four-star linebacker Will Ignont to its 2017 class.

Ignont chose the Volunteers over offers from Alabama, Auburn, Michigan, and Cal, among others.

"Beyond blessed to announce that I am committing to play at the University of Tennessee," wrote the 6-foot-1, 236-pound Alabama native on Twitter.

Ignont is rated No. 12 for his position in the country and the No. 20 prospect in his home state.

So how happy is coach Jones?
