In the 2026 recruiting class, Tennessee has been pursuing a number of the best talents in the country.
Jaziel Hart has been one of the Vols’ primary targets in this class. From Roanoke, Virginia’s North Cross High School, Hart is a three-star cornerback. He has begun to arrange official visits and has numerous offers.
The Tennessee Volunteers are among the schools that have been granted an official visitation date for the three-star. Hart is scheduled to arrive at the Vols on June 13 and remain there until June 15.
After his declaration, Hart talked to Tennessee on SI.
“I am excited to establish a relationship with the coaches and get close to some of the guys when we get on the waters in Tennessee,” Hart told Tennessee on SI.
There are already two Tennessee coaches with whom Hart has ties.
Coach Taver Johnson and Danny O’Rourke are the people I connect with the most because they call me frequently. Every day, I receive inspirational quotes from Coach O’Rourke.
One of the major reasons Tennessee is intriguing is because of the Virginia athlete. “They have one of my guys, Peyton Lewis, there, which makes them interesting.”
Hart shared with Tennessee on SI the day of his commitment. Only a few weeks after his Volunteers OV, he will be committing.
“I’m most likely going to commit on July 3.”
