Status
As of right now, Brandon Jones is an unknown commodity in most recruiting services. Jones has the size and is in a recruit-rich state, but so far his only offers are from Tennessee and UCF. Jones could turn out to be another diamond in the rough type of find, so getting in early on him like the Vols have could pay off.

How he fits
It’s easy to see right off the bat why Tennessee’s coaching staff has targeted Brandon Jones. With his size and frame, he has the potential to develop into a defensive tackle. Jones has good movement and block-shedding at defensive end, but he has the potential to have the kind of versatility Butch Jones and his staff put high value on.
