The 6-foot-4, 265-pound offensive lineman also thanked Glen Elarbee.
Elarbee served as offensive line coach for Heupel at UCF. Tennessee has not officially announced the hiring of Elarbee to Heupel’s staff for the Vols.
Elarbee also served as offensive line coach at Missouri from 2016-17, while Heupel was offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the Tigers.
Uke is a 2021 prospect and is from Parish Episcopal School in Dallas, Texas.
