Four-star cornerback Olaijah Griffin had been committed to UCLA since July, but he has now decided to decommit and already has a new favorite school in his recruitment.
#4 CB in the nation Olaijah Griffin says he's "moved on from UCLA" and Tennessee is at the top of his list. He visited Knoxville the weekend before the dead period. He'd likely start immediately for Tennessee if he signed https://t.co/aDAwB5zLex

Top cornerback prospect Olaijah Griffin has decommitted from UCLA, told @Volquest_Rivals that Tennessee is now his leader. “Go Vols,” he said smiling. Southern Cal and Oregon in the mix, too.

The 6-foot, 170-pound California native is ranked as the No. 4 player at his position and No. 6 recruit in the state according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. Griffin took an official visit to Tennessee earlier in December and apparently that was enough to sway his decision.
He also has offers from USC, Alabama, Arizona, Auburn, Michigan and TCU among others.
Here are some of his highlights:
