Eric Gray commits to Oklahoma

The hire of Josh Heupel at Tennessee clearly wasn’t enough to keep star running back Eric Gray in Knoxville. The sophomore runner hit the transfer portal last week, following the lead of several key Volunteers.

Tonight, he’s announced that he’s going to Oklahoma.

Gray joins former five-star tackle Wanya Morris and four-star defensive back Key Lawrence in Norman.

The Memphis native was pretty easily Tennessee’s best skill player in 2020. Gray ran for 772 yards and four touchdowns in nine games. Following the exit of Jeremy Pruitt, Gray decided that his time in Knoxville would come to a close.
