"I just came to have fun," said Harrell, who had just checked out Clemson. "I came to chill with my boys and lock people down."
"They keep asking me what position I want to play," he said. "They offered me as a running back but they still continue to ask me what position I want to play. It don't really matter."
"As far as the type of defense that they run, I would probably fit in better as the nickel or safety or as a defensive guy overall because of my coverage and how physical I am. I also play linebacker," Harrell said. "So, I would say nickel, but at the same time I like running back. We will have to see when we get here."
On possibility of working with Hurd:
"Absolutely, absolutely," Harrell said. "All this is about competition, man. Anywhere you go in the nation there's going to be competition. It can be Kentucky, it can be a small Middle Tennessee, it doesn't really matter. Anywhere you go there's going to be competition. It's just the level of competition. I would love to compete with that man."
"I talk to Jones probably once or twice a week," said Harrell, who plays his prep ball at Catholic High School in Tampa, Fla.
"Top 3, easy. This place really has a great chance to get me. I'm not even going to lie really has a good chance," he said.
"It's going to be late because like I said I'm going to be a man of my word," Harrell said. "I'm going to hold off. I'm not going to commit. I'm not going to do none of that. I'm going to sit back, and I'm going to wait."
