Relationship with coaching staff + how they plan on using Harrell

“My relationship with the staff is nothing less than real. They are recruiting me so hard that I don’t have a favorite. I’m close with everybody and that is what stands out to me. They plan on making me a playmaker in their explosive offense. Any way they can get me the ball they will do so. As you know they were the most explosive offense in college football.”

What Tennessee is getting in JJ Harrell 

“Tennessee is getting a dawg. Knoxville is in Good hands.”

Harrell joins coach Heupel and the Vols’ Top 15 class in the 2024 team rankings. He is accompanied by Jonathan Echols, Kaleb Beasley, and others.
