Moments after winning a Class 4A state championship with Leeds, athlete Tadarryl Marshall was all Vol, getting ready to help Tennessee recruit and sign with the school he committed to next February.
But that changed on Sunday, when he confirmed that Tennessee had pulled its scholarship offer.
Marshall was an electric athlete for Leeds, starring at quarterback but also playing receiver, safety and returning kicks. The three-star athlete committed to Tennessee in April.
Marshall said that Tennessee did not give him a reason why they pulled his offer, and he was unsure where he'd turn next. He said in his tweet that "a business decision has been made." Marshall said he was academically qualified and has a 3.2 GPA. Marshall also said he hasn't talked to Tennessee in weeks.
Per his 247Sports profile page, Marshall has more than 20 offers. He said before his commitment to Tennessee, he had offers to play quarterback from Georgia Tech, Samford and Alabama State.
