PINSON — Clay-Chalkville senior Marquarius White announced his commitment on Thursday.
The three-star wideout pulled the trigger to Tennessee over Louisville. He also held offers from Alabama, Auburn, Michigan and many others.
White is listed at 5-foot-11 and is considered the No. 80 overall receiver in America and the No. 24 player in the state, according to rivals.com.
