Can new running backs coach Jerry Mack keep Tennessee football recruiting Memphis successfully?

Josh Heupel called Jerry Mack a couple of weeks before the Tennessee football coach hired him to be his running backs coach in early February.
Mack had never worked with Heupel, but the Rice offensive coordinator checked a couple of key boxes for Heupel.
Mack has a strong offensive background and great connections in recruiting across the southeast, especially in the key recruiting ground of Memphis.
