“Top Recruit Elijah Haven Chooses Tennessee Vols Over Alabama, LSU, Michigan, and Florida”
Elijah Haven, one of the top high school football prospects in the nation, has made his college commitment official, choosing to play for the Tennessee Volunteers over a slew of powerhouse programs. The highly sought-after recruit, known for his explosive speed and versatility, announced that he would be heading to Knoxville, rejecting offers from Alabama, LSU, Michigan, and Florida.
Haven, a standout cornerback from a prestigious high school football program, has been on the radar of major college football programs for years. His decision to join the Vols marks a significant win for Tennessee, which has been working hard to build its recruiting class for the upcoming seasons.

Haven’s decision to choose Tennessee over the other football powerhouses highlights the growing appeal of the Vols program, which has been consistently competitive in recent seasons. With his commitment, Tennessee solidifies its status as one of the top destinations for future talent in the SEC and college football at large.
