Vanderbilt added one of the best defenders in the country to its 2018 class after securing the commitment of Alston Orji.
The Texas native announced his decision on his personal Twitter account:

The 4-star outside linebacker ranks fifth at his position and 107th overall in 2018, per Scout. He's also the best outside linebacker in the Midland Region.
Orji's physique immediately stands out. Standing 6'2" and weighing 223 pounds, he cuts an imposing figure on the field.
