Rivals.com released their annual top 250 list on Tuesday for the 2014 recruiting class. Several Tennessee targets made the list including running back Jalen Hurd at 15th, defensive back Jalen Tabor at 27th, offensive linemen Alex Bars at 55th, safety and Knoxville native Todd Kelly at 59th and defensive end Lorenzo Featherston at 108th.
Current Tennessee commit cornerback Vic Wharton from Nashville, TN made the list coming in at 229th.
The Vols are hoping the childhood relationship between Wharton and Kelly will be able to sway Kelly to Tennessee. Kelly has already picked up offers from Alabama, Clemson, Florida, Notre Dame, and USC as well as Tennessee among others.
Jalen Hurd is the third highest running back on the list and the highest among Tennessee targets at the position. Hurd, from Hendersonville, TN, has picked up notable offers from Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and LSU in addition to his offer from Tennessee.
