WATCH: Tennessee WR commit Ramel Keyton starts his senior season off right with amazing TD reception
Published:
So far, Ramel Keyton is living up to the hype for Tennessee fans.
Tennessee’s lone receiver commit of the 2019 recruiting cycle has already shown why he ranks among the top 150 prospects in the nation as the four-star Marietta, Ga., prospect caught four touchdowns in the first game of his high school season for Marietta High School on Thursday.
The 6-foot-3, 182-pound Keyton ranks as the No. 111 overall recruit in the nation according to 247Sports Composite Rankings and is Tennessee’s second-highest ranked commitment at this time. During his junior season, he caught 59 passes for 1,194 yards and 16 touchdowns. While those numbers are pretty gaudy, based on the first game of his senior season, Keyton will shatter those numbers in 2018 before arriving on Rocky Top.
The best highlight put up by Keyton in the game came on the touchdown play below. It’s worth noting that his quarterback, Harrison Bailey, is one of the nation’s most coveted 2020 QB prospects and also a Tennessee target:
