BREAKING NEWS:Tennessee’s Josh Heupel hosting potential ….
Tennessee’s head coach, Josh Heupel, is actively seeking to bolster the Volunteers’ running back depth, especially with the potential departure of key players like Dylan Sampson. In a significant recruiting move, Heupel has secured a commitment from in-state running back Daune Morris, who previously committed to the University of Southern California. Morris, a dynamic 5-foot-10, 185-pound back from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, was swayed by Heupel’s persistent recruitment efforts and the opportunity to play closer to home.
Additionally, the Volunteers are in contention for top-tier talent in future classes. Savion Hiter, the nation’s No. 1 running back prospect for the 2026 class, has included Tennessee in his top four choices, alongside Michigan, Georgia, and Ohio State. Hiter, who recently visited Knoxville, praised the program’s environment and coaching staff, indicating a strong interest in the Volunteers.
These recruiting efforts reflect Heupel’s commitment to strengthening Tennessee’s offensive backfield. By securing commitments from promising talents like Morris and pursuing elite prospects such as Hiter, the Volunteers aim to ensure depth and competitiveness in their running back corps for the coming seasons.
