"I committed this morning," he said.
He informed Blue Raiders head coach Rick Stockstill of his decision during a morning meeting.
"We talked about my decision and if I wanted to go there or not," Cleveland said. "He advised me wherever I go, I just needed to make sure that I was going to like it and be comfortable."
A comfort level was achieved during this past weekend's official visit.
"It was great," Cleveland said. "We took a tour of the campus, they showed us around the town and the academic center. We got in contact with the teachers in the subject we want to major in.
"We got to meet the rest of the coaching staff, meet with regular students."
Cleveland is a two-star rated prospect according to Rivals.com.
