Christian is a 3-star running back on the 247Sports Composite, and listed as the No. 92 running back in the country at 6-foot-2, 194-pounds. Tennessee is only the second SEC school to offer Christian, joining Arkansas.
While Alabama has shown interest, the Crimson Tide have not yet extended a scholarship offer. Teams such Kansas, UAB, Duke and Kansas State have offered Christian.
Tennessee will lose seniors Ty Chandler and Tim Jordan after the 2020 season, and will be looking to build depth at the position in the 2021 recruiting class.
