Harrell is the fourth four-star prospect committed to first-year coach Zach Arnett's upcoming class − matching last year's total. Harrell's commitment came just a few hours after fellow four-star PJ Woodland, a cornerback out of Hattiesburg, announced he is also headed to MSU.
Defensive lineman Terrance Hibbler and quarterback Josh Flowers are the other four-star commits.
