Carnell Tate commits to Ohio State over Tennessee

Five-star receiver Carnell Tate has made his decision. Tennessee came hard after the IMG Academy product hard over the last few months, but they ultimately will come up short. Tate committed to Ohio State on Monday, joining a ridiculous NFL pipeline in Columbus.

Tate made his announcement late this afternoon.

Tennessee hosted Tate several times and was in the thick of the battle after landing five-star quarterback Nico Iamaleava. In fact, there was a time not so long ago where the Volunteers were even thought of as the favorite here, but Ohio State closed strong and held the momentum over the last couple of weeks.
