A Tennessee Vols transfer is heading south to join former UT offensive coordinator Alex Golesh at USF.
Offensive lineman RJ Perry, a former three-star recruit from Fairfield, AL, announced on Saturday that he's transferring to USF.
Golesh left Tennessee last month to become the new head coach at USF. It was announced last week that quarterbacks coach Joey Halzle will replace Golesh as the Vols' offensive coordinator.
Perry signed with Tennessee during the 2020 recruiting cycle.
The redshirt sophomore, who started his career as a defensive lineman, didn't see any action as a true freshman in 2020.
Perry played sparingly in 2021 and 2022, mostly appearing on PAT attempts.
Perry should be able to carve out a nice role in USF's offense since he's already familiar with the up-tempo attack that Golesh will install in Tampa.
