A couple of Tennessee basketball signees have been showing off their hops in some recent videos posted online. Point guard Jordan Bone, the younger brother of former UT guard Josh Bone, posted this video of himself on Twitter getting away above the rim:

And you’ve probably seen or heard about the other point guard signee, Kwe Parker, and his high-flying dunks, but Bleacher Report put out a featured video of him with some pretty ridiculous slams as well:

That doesn’t guarentee a ton necessarily for Tennessee’s basketball future. It’s nice to have high-flyers, but there’s certainly more to winning games than that. But UT fans have to at least be optimistic that the athletic upside shown in these videos will lead to more wins for the Vols in the coming seasons after 2015-16.
This six-man class appears to be a foundational one for Rick Barnes, and UT will need several of these guys to pan out if the Vols want to return to the NCAA tournament in the near future.
