Crompton makes it official, commits to Vols

WAYNESVILLE, N.C. -- Jonathan Crompton is a Tennessee commitment.

The Waynesville, N.C. quarterback announced his college commitment at a press conference held at his high school this afternoon. Crompton (6’3", 205), from Tuscola High School, said he committed to Tennessee coaches after the Vols’ Mississippi State game last year.

Tennessee’s closest competition came from Georgia. Crompton received offers from several other schools. He said the desire to play in the SEC was a major factor. His comfort level at Tennessee was also a factor. Crompton said he has already called other Vol prospects in hopes of swaying them to commit to Tennessee.
