He visited FSU three times this year before committing to South Carolina, attending a Junior Day event in March and multiple spring practices.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Tyson is ranked as the No. 357 overall player and No. 23 athlete in the 247Sports composite. The Snellville product is also the No. 38 player from Georgia.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">He had a strong junior season at Brockwood High School, rushing for 1,292 yards and 16 touchdowns on 163 carries. While it was a great performance, it had nothing on his sophomore campaign. He finished his breakout season with 2,123 yards and 26 touchdowns, averaging 10.2 yards per carry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Tyson is the latest running back target that the Seminoles have missed out on, with Ty Keys committing to Miami and Gary Walker trending towards the <a href=\"http:\/\/clemsonwire.usatoday.com\" data-t-l=\":b|z|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Clemson Tigers<\/a>.
