Junior college defensive tackle Ben Bradley (Hutchinson, Kan./Hutchinson Community College) used to attend Tennessee football camps when he was a high school player at Norcross, Ga. He always wanted a scholarship offer from the Volunteers, but he never got one in high school.
Bradley finally got that offer playing on the juco level, and the 6-foot-3, 310-pound tackle verbally committed to the Volunteers on Friday. Bradley chose Tennessee over offers from Boise State, Texas A&M, Arizona and Arkansas. He became Tennessee’s 12th commit of the 2013 recruiting class.
“I always told myself in high school that I would go if they offered,” Bradley said. “When I went to a couple camps, they never offered, but since they offered me in juco, I decided to take it. All my family loves it.”
