Head coach Jeremy Pruitt and the Volunteers have been hot on the recruiting trail the past couple of weeks. Tennessee has added three commitments to its 2019 recruiting class since March 30, including one from junior college defensive lineman Darel Middleton.
“Tennessee has always been home to me and I really liked the way the coaching staff talked to me,” Middleton told GN. “They approached me differently than most other staffs did.”
Middleton, (6-feet-7, 290 pounds) is originally from Oak Ridge, (TN.) and is currently attending East Mississippi Community College.
Middleton committed to Tennessee all the way back in May of 2013, but says he wasn’t ready for that type of commitment at such an early age.
