Tennessee Assistant Receives National Recognition for Recruiting.
Following the conclusion of the 2024 recruiting cycle with the passing of traditional signing day, Tennessee has solidified its position with the No. 12 signing class nationwide, according to 247Sports’ Overall Rankings. This marks the second consecutive year that head coach Josh Heupel has guided the team to a top-12 recruiting class, showcasing his commitment to elevating standards at the University of Tennessee.
Heupel’s success is not achieved alone but with significant support from his coaching staff, extending beyond mere position coaches. Recognizing the contributions of Tennessee defensive analyst Levorn Harbin, 247Sports’ Steve Wiltfong highlights Harbin’s role in securing key recruits for the team, notably mentioning his involvement in landing top edge prospect Jordan Ross, ranked No. 1 by 247Sports. Additionally, Harbin’s impact on securing offensive talent like Max Thurmond is underscored.
Jordan Ross stands out as the highest-rated recruit Tennessee signed in the 2024 class and represents a significant defensive addition under Heupel’s leadership. With Ross poised to make an impact on the Vols’ defense, credit is due to Harbin for his role in securing this top prospect. As Ross develops under the guidance of defensive line coach Rodney Garner, his array of skills and athleticism suggests a promising future, highlighting the significant contribution of Harbin in Tennessee’s recruiting success.
