CONGTRATULATIONS: World Series Winning QB Arrived At Tennessee HQ To Sign a Deal….

Tennessee is one of the leading candidates to catch a highly-regarded Louisiana offensive-line target. Devin Harper, a four-star offensive lineman in the Class of 2025 from Shreveport, Louisiana’s Calvary Baptist Academy, revealed his top 10 college selections on social media on Friday afternoon. The Vols are among nine SEC clubs that are vying for Harper’s services.

Tennessee led a group of contenders that included Georgia, Texas, Oklahoma, LSU, Alabama, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, and Texas Tech in addition to the 6-foot-5, 300-pound Harper. Nearly thirty colleges have offered him scholarships, including all ten of his current top choices. He shared an image with the ten colleges’ logos on it.

According to 247Sports, he is the No. 6 interior offensive lineman, No. 109 overall prospect, and No. 2 junior from Louisiana in the 2025 class. In the 247Sports Composite, which is produced by the industry, he is rated as a four-star prospect as well as the 125th best player overall, the sixth best interior offensive lineman in the 2025 class, and the third-best junior from Louisiana.

Scouting analyst Gabe Brooks of 247Sports stated in November that Harper was “pretty raw” but had “plenty of upside” as a prospect.

“Harper plays physical and sets the tone at the (line of scrimmage) for Shreveport (La.) Captain Shreve,” Brooks wrote at that time. “He is a block-finisher and down blocker by conviction. Harper demonstrates above-average foot quickness and the necessary lateral mobility, but his hand placement and body control are still developing. Although hands don’t always land on target, they do so when they do.

“The motor doesn’t seem to be in doubt, and overall movement ability is above average. Some schools may view Harper as a future combo offensive lineman based on his long-term projection. He’s really raw, but I think he has a lot of potential, so I really like him.”

Harper acknowledged to 247Sports’ Bryce Koon that he still needed to work on at least one significant area of his game after attending an LSU camp in June.

Harper said to Koon at the time, “I know my strengths are my ability to be a good run blocker and just being nasty up front.” “Coaches have expressed their admiration for my footwork and ability to drive opponents back during a run game. My pass protection is what I want to focus on the most and will keep doing so. That’s something I need to work on more to become a more capable lineman.

Five commitments for the 2025 class have already been made to Tennessee, the best of which is four-star tight end Jack VanDorselaer, a Top247 recruit from Southlake, Texas. There are currently no expected offensive linemen in the Vols’ 2025 class.

They were already supposed to meet at the table to discuss the upcoming home game against Tennessee tomorrow night. However, Sam Purcell, the coach of Mississippi State, and Lauren Park-Lane, the guard, addressed the social media controversy that originated from a different source outside of the school.

Geno Auriemma, the head coach of UConn, recently spoke about the difficulties his profession has due to student-athlete transfers and potential for name-image likeness. After a St. John’s game, Auriemma talked about how lucky he is and then looked at other programmes that had lost players who had grown with them over time.
