The Vols are the only SEC school joining a group of Big Ten programs, as Ohio State, Northwestern, Penn State and Minnesota are also included.
Alabama is the only other SEC school to offer Story, but did not make the cut in his list of five.
Story is a 6-foot-4, 235-pound defensive end who rates as a 4-star recruit and the No. 19 player at his position in his class, per the 247Sports Composite. Story also rates as the No. 9 player in Ohio.
Tennessee currently has ten prospects committed to the 2021 recruiting class, with one defensive end included in Florida product Darrell Jackson.
