4-Star DE flips commitment from Georgia football

Class of 2022 defensive end Tyre West has flipped his commitment after being committed to Georgia football for over a year. West has committed to the Tennessee Volunteers.

West is an elite four-star recruit who plays high school football for Tift County in Tifton, Georgia. He’s considered one of the top in-state recruits in his class.

West is rated as a four-star recruit and the No. 111 player in the class of 2022. The Tift County star is the No. 20 defensive lineman in the country and the No. 12 overall player in the state of Georgia.

Tyre West committed to Tennessee over FSU and Georgia. The 6-foot-3, 280-pound defensive lineman is a huge addition for Tennessee.

The four-star defensive end has received scholarship offers from Georgia, LSU, Alabama, Texas, Oregon, Tennessee, Auburn, Florida, and many more.

On tape, Tyre West exhibits impressive strength. He’s got a strong bull rush that can overwhelm unfortunate high school offensive linemen. West also has enduring pursuit and never gives up on a play. The 280 pound defender has the speed to chase down plays from the backside and the football IQ to diagnose option plays that are a staple in modern college football.
