Tennessee legacy prospect Bennett Christian has Vols in top three

A Tennessee legacy has named the Volunteers to his top three choices this week. Bennett Christian, a 2022 tight end prospect, placed Tennessee alongside of Ohio State and Penn State in his top three announcement on Thursday.

Christian’s father Bill played at Tennessee under Johnny Majors.

Christian is 6-5, 225 pounds and is a rising junior in high school. He’s currently ranked as a three-star prospect in the 2022 class, but judging by his top three, that ranking is due for an update. Christian is currently the 18th ranked tight end in the nation and the 26th ranked player in the state of Georgia, per 247Sports.
