KNOXVILLE – Tennessee picked up a commitment from the nation’s top-rated junior college defensive tackle in the 2019 class on Tuesday.

Savion Williams of Lackawanna Community College in Scranton, Pennsylvania, announced his pledge to the Volunteers through Twitter.

The addition of Williams continues a momentous stretch on the recruiting trail for Tennessee, which has seen its 2019 class grow from 14 members to 18 in the past week.

Williams is the third junior college commitment in the class. He chose the Vols over Georgia and West Virginia and is at least the third defensive tackle in the recruiting class.

Verbal commitments are nonbinding, and players’ first chance to sign comes in December.
