Monroe College (JUCO) offensive lineman Savion Herring made a surprise announcement Thursday night, when he tweeted his commitment to Tennessee.
Herring was originally a recruit in the 2019 recruiting class, who committed to Cincinnati. But his grades forced him to go the JUCO route, where he first attended Iowa Central Community College. He transferred to Monroe College in 2020. Last season, Herring appeared in five games. His other offers include Kansas, Syracuse, and Akron to name a few.
This is a bit of a head scratcher of a take. Herring does have a good length for a lineman (6-foot-5), as well as decent size (325 pounds).
