Now that the Class of 2018 is on the clock, several of the nation’s top players have started cutting their lists in advance of a commitment announcement.

Today, experts from the Rivals.com network examine where Rivals250 running back Jamal Currie-Elliott might end up playing his college football. The candidates are Tennessee, Oregon and Virginia Tech

The Situation: Currie-Elliott recently trimmed his list to the aforementioned three schools and has spoken highly of each program in the past. He’s made a few trips to Blacksburg in recent months, but his most notable visit was to Tennessee in February. He’s yet to see Oregon but has been consistent in his affinity for the Ducks and has said he plans to visit soon. A commitment could be on the horizon, so where will he end up? We asked our team experts to state the case for their respective programs and let National Recruiting Analyst Adam Gorney issue a verdict.

TENNESSEE VOLUNTEERS
“Currie-Elliott once named Tennessee his leader before backing off that pledge and simply listing the Vols among his top three. The explosive North Carolina native has visited Rocky Top several times in the last year, building a rapport with running backs coach Robert Gillespie. Currie-Elliot's speed and vision would fit seamlessly in Tennessee's spread offense, and the Vols see him as a nice replacement for Alvin Kamara.” - Jesse Simonton, Volquest.com
