Loyola Chicago transfer center Miles Rubin committed to Tennessee after the 2025-26 basketball season.
The 6-foot-10, 220-pound transfer appeared in 103 games, including 100 starts, at Loyola Chicago from 2023-26. He averaged nine points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, while totaling 237 blocks and 51 steals.
Tennessee head coach Rick Barnes discussed Rubin signing with the Vols.
"We are pleased to have Miles and his family join us at Tennessee," Barnes said. "He is an incredibly tough and hard-working player who loves to be a star in his role. Miles is an ideal fit in our defensive scheme as a sensational rim protector who can also defend one-on-one in the post and guard on the perimeter. Offensively, he is an impressive lob threat with really good hands, nice touch around the rim and quality passing ability.
"Miles is excited to play on a big stage, compete daily against elite competition and make a run in the NCAA Tournament, as well as work with Garrett Medenwald in the weight room."
Rubin has one season of eligibility remaining.
