Western Kentucky has picked up its 14th football commitment for the Class of 2019.

Garrett Jennings, an offensive lineman from Elizabethton (Tenn.) High School, confirmed Saturday to the Daily News that he’s committed to the Hilltoppers.

Jennings, 6-foot-7 and 317 pounds, plays both left and right tackle for his high school, which sits east of Johnson City, Tenn., and just south of the Tennessee-Virginia border.

The lineman said WKU became aware of him when his high school coach sent his junior year tapes to the Hilltopper coaching staff. Running backs coach Mike Sanford Sr. was his primary recruiter, while he also got to know offensive line coach TJ Woods.

Jennings said he chose WKU over offers from Alabama-Birmingham and FCS schools Austin Peay, Eastern Kentucky and Tennessee-Martin.

“For me being such a big guy, I’m able to stay low,” Jennings said of his O-line skills. “I’m pretty quick. I’ve got good footwork and I’m pretty strong.”

Jennings is the fourth offensive line commit for the Toppers in their 2019 class, joining Joshua Black, Jordan Flack and Daylen Powell. He’s the second Tennessean in the class alongside Tavares Springer.

Jennings said he plans to ink with WKU during the December signing period after his senior high school season.
