Larry Johnson III joined the Tennessee commitment party Wednesday night.
Johnson, a 6-7, 350-pound offensive lineman out of Hutchinson Community College in Kansas, is headed from the JUCO ranks to the SEC. He shared a note and graphic to announce his commitment on Twitter:
“First (before) anything in this world God comes first and I thank him for putting me in the predicament I never imagined I’d be in. I wanna thank My coaches at Jenkins and Hutch CV for not only seeing something I couldn’t see and believing in me but pushing me, Being there for my personal family issues and Loving me as one of their own and for caring for what I care for. I thank every coach humbly that gave me an opportunity and believed in me because last year I wasn’t in the shoes I’m in now. After long hard thought I’ll be committing to THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE #GBO”
