I guess they are never too young to recruit them.
Vols get commitment from 13-year-old
Nothing in recruiting surprises me anymore. And nothing involving Lane Kiffin really surprises me anymore. So, here you go:
Tennesee has received a commitment form 13-year-old Evan Berry, younger brother of Vol player Eric Berry. Part of the 2013 recruiting class, the quarterback/safety will start high school this year.
"It's the only college I know and it seems the best for me," Evan Berry told Rivals.com. "My dad went there and my brother is there now. I know I can do the same things there. I have a real friendly relationship with the coaches there. I know I don't know them too well but I know I will have plenty of time to get to know them."
Ain't that the truth?

Nope. He's just giving Kiffin his word. He can't sign a LOI until his senior year. Also, he can back out of this commitment at any time. Nothing is set in stone until you sign on the dotted line.
BTW: LOI= Letter of Intent
It will keep other teams from approaching him?

Yeah pretty much. But recruitings pretty scummy. USF signed a Defensive End last year and a week after he committed, USC sent a recruiter to his house to try and get him to change his mind. Thank god he didn't.
This little kid has a long way to go. My little brother's 13 and I just couldn't imagine him making a decision like this. However, I'm pretty sure his dad and older bro made the decision for him.
