4-star linebacker commits to Tennessee over Alabama

JJ Peterson is tired of recruiters interrupting his workouts. The 4-star LB will be a welcome addition to the Volunteers.

SAN ANTONIO – A strong recruiting run for the University of Tennessee continued on Saturday at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl when Top100 linebacker JJ Peterson put on a Volunteers hat and committed to new head coach Jeremy Pruitt.

Alabama was the runner-up.

“I had a hard time choosing where I want to be,” Peterson told 247Sports. “I just feel the best for me is to go to Tennessee. Tennessee is the best for me. I feel like Tennessee isn't going to let me down. I feel like Tennessee is going to give me a chance to play.”
