Three-star defensive tackler Jared Dawson became Louisville football’s fourth commitment in six days and its second in the last 24 hours when he announced his decision on Twitter Thursday morning.
As a junior at Collierville (TN) High School in 2018, Dawson earned first-team All-Region honors after recording 68 tackles, 11 sacks and 26 tackles for a loss. The 6’3, 255-pound D-lineman is also a standout in wrestling, where he went 50-3 and placed third in the heavyweight division at the Class 3-A state tournament last season. Dawson also scored a 31 on his ACT and told 247 Sports that he hopes to improve that score the next time he takes the test.
