Tennessee makes the cut for four-star receiver Isaiah Hazel

Tennessee has already landed a 2019 commitment from one four-star receiver in Ramel Keyton this month, how about another one? The Vols are in the running for a handful of different pass catchers. Now, you can throw Isaiah Hazel into that mix as well.

The four-star receiver trimmed his list down to seven on Monday, which included the Tennessee Volunteers.

Jeremy Pruitt and staff were late to the party with Hazel, getting an offer out on April 24th. The 6-1, 190 pound receiver comes out of Upper Marlboro, Maryland. Hazel is the 32nd ranked receiver and 186th overall player currently, according to 247 Sports’ latest rankings.

Also included in his top seven were Maryland, Michigan, Virginia Tech, Ole Miss, Alabama and West Virginia. Hazel currently has two crystal ball projections that point to Maryland as the favorite.

Tennessee certainly has work to do to beat out the hometown Terrapins, along with the other finalists. Still, it’s noteworthy that the staff has at least made this much headway after jumping into his recruitment just a little over a month ago.

Add Hazel to the list of receiver possibilities with guys like Trey Knox and Lance Wilhoite for now.
