On Friday, Tennessee head coach Rick Barnes discussed Haralson signing with the Vols.
“We are delighted to have Jalen joining the Tennessee basketball family and feel he is a superb fit here,” Barnes said. “Jalen has tremendous positional versatility on both sides of the floor, which is a valuable asset. He is an aggressive, downhill driver who does an excellent job of drawing fouls and getting to the line. Jalen can grab a rebound and get the break going, as he possesses a good handle, stellar passing ability and a high basketball IQ.
“He is well-suited for the pick-and-roll game and is also great at cutting to the rim. Jalen is looking forward to being part of our program and helping us win.”
