Florida wide receiver/defensive back Chandler Dorrell will walk on to the Stanford football team for the 2013 season, told Cardinal Sports Report late Friday night.
"Yes I did (commit), I'll be walking on next year," Dorrell said.
Though Dorrell played mostly receiver for his St. Thomas Aquinas high school team, he will enter Stanford as a defensive back. The Card didn't sign a true defensive back in the 2013 recruiting class (though Taijuan Thomas will likely begin his career at the position), and Dorrell is a capable athlete.
Dorrell took an official visit to Stanford in mid-January. Ultimately, the opportunity to play football on The Farm trumped some of Dorrell's other enticing football options.
