Alabama LB Justin Okoronkwo commits to South Carolina
Mar 6, 2024; Tuscaloosa, Alabama, USA; Linebacker Justin Okoronkwo does a drill during practice for the Alabama Crimson Tide football team Wednesday. After choosing Alabama over South Carolina in July 2023, linebacker Justin Okoronkwo committed to the Gamecocks on Friday.
Okoronkwo entered the transfer portal after playing in Alabama's 19-13 loss to Michigan in the ReliaQuest Bowl on New Year's Eve.
The German native committed to the Crimson Tide in July 2023, bypassing offers from South Carolina, Michigan, Penn State and Nebraska, among others.
Okoronkwo played his lone season in Tuscaloosa under new Crimson Tide coach Kalen DeBoer, compiling 14 tackles (0.5 for loss) in 13 games.
South Carolina finished 9-4 this season but lost key defensive players and is hoping Okoronkwo and other transfers can bolster the unit.
