Tennessee Vols Secure Nation’s No. 1-Ranked QB, Dillon Gabriel
In a major win for Tennessee football, the Vols have successfully landed the nation’s No. 1-ranked quarterback, Dillon Gabriel, one of the most coveted recruits of the 2024 class. The 6-foot-1, 200-pound standout from Orlando, Florida, announced his commitment to the Vols, adding a highly sought-after playmaker to the program’s future.
Gabriel, known for his elite arm strength, mobility, and impressive decision-making, has been a standout at every level of competition. As a high school senior, he led his team to multiple playoff appearances and threw for over 3,500 yards with 40+ touchdowns in his junior and senior seasons. His ability to make plays both in the pocket and on the move earned him comparisons to some of the best in college football.
Tennessee’s coaching staff, led by head coach Josh Heupel, played a key role in Gabriel’s decision, with the program’s high-powered offense and the development of quarterbacks under Heupel being a major factor in the recruitment. Gabriel’s decision is seen as a sign of Tennessee’s continued rise in the SEC and college football’s national landscape.
With the addition of Gabriel, Tennessee is poised to build its future around one of the most dynamic quarterbacks in the country, signaling even brighter days ahead for the Vols as they look to compete at the highest levels in the coming seasons.
