MURFREESBORO — Adonis Otey, who has garnered college football offers from multiple SEC schools, has left Blackman High according to his father.
Seneca Otey wrote on social media that his son, a 6-foot-1, 168-pound sophomore, is leaving Rutherford County. He did not say what high school his son was going to attend this fall.
Adonis Otey has football offers from Kentucky, LSU, Tennessee and Vanderbilt.
He was projected as a starter at safety for the Blaze this season. He would have also been a backup quarterback and a receiver for Blackman.
Adonis Otey, who played primarily on the Blaze freshman football team in 2015, made four tackles in limited action for the varsity team.
Blackman coach David Watson wrote in a text message to The Daily News Journal that Adonis Otey hasn’t been with the team since after the dead period and is not currently on the team roster.
Blackman finished 10-3 in 2015, falling to Maryville in the Class 6A state quarterfinals.
