13 MD WR Paul Harris (UT commit 7/17/12)

I think our core of Maybin, Sanders, Harriss, Bradley, and Carr is solid. Then you add in guys like Ferguson, Vereen, Sutton, Zanca, and Goeas I think this class is solid. Not in the recruiting rankings which will take care of itself once we hire a new coach, but solid with character and leadership and just raw talent.

"I don't think I'm going to look around," Harris said. "I need to call the school and try to develop a good relationship with the new coaches."

@HollaAtchGwolla: Just got offered from #Oregon.

This is a big pickup for us, we need him to stick!
 
This one will likely come down to who is hired...what worries me with Harris is him being an EE...he may feel the need to make a decision before we hire a new WR coach...hopefully th HC is a big enough splash to keep him in the fold...our WR situation could be real scary next year if we don't keep him and land someone like North
 
Word is he is listening to Oregon. We need to hire a proven winner at coach that will retain a lot of our star recruits and find others. We can't be losing guys like this all of a sudden.
 
Tuesday, Hinshaw will be in Florida to see Dominic Zanca and Corey Vereen. Both continue to say they are solid and ready to enroll in January. Hinshaw will see receiver commit Paul Harris who received an offer from Oregon earlier this week. He's in the midst of a state championship run and had a huge week last week in the semifinals game.

Darin Hinshaw was with Paul Harris and his family Thursday night and Harris said it was a very good visit. Harris, who is still planning on being an early enrollee, will likely take his official visit in December when the new coach is hired. What will be critical to Harris is whether or not Hinshaw remains once the new head coach is hired.

"We lost so I wasn't too happy about that. I was really trying to do something and I really couldn't do anything. I was double and triple-teamed and I didn't know they were going to play me like that. I just felt bad for my coaches and stuff and it really didn't go the way I planned it would," Harris said Sunday afternoon. "It was frustrating and my team was expecting so much more out of me and my coaches were, too. It was disappointing. Middleton's a good team and they were coached really well."


"It was good. It was a good senior season," Harris said. "I hope other people think that, too, the people that watch the games because I wanted to prove to everybody I was a top wide receiver in my class because they have me at 31 in my class ranking-wise and I just wanted to show everybody that I'm better than what they gave me. I just wanted to show everybody and prove that I'm a top wide receiver in the 2013 class."

"I'm enrolling early at the University of Tennessee as of right now," Harris said. "I'm pretty good as long as my wide receivers coach stays there. That was one of the big reasons I committed to Tennessee because he was my coach. If they fire him, which I doubt they would do, but if they do I'm looking at Oregon and South Carolina. If they fire him before I enroll than I'm going to look at other schools than. But, if they don't I'm going to stay there."

"It's up in the air because if they get a new coach before I can go down there coach Hinshaw said he's going to come up and visit me. So, I don't need to take an official if he's going to come up here," Harris said. "I'm not too much caught up in all the facilities and that stuff and I know it's nice and all that stuff, but the main thing I focus on is what they're going to do with the coaching staff, that's the main thing."

Also says he plans on visiting Oregon on Dec. 14th.
 
Harris is also leaning towards a visit at South Carolina. I don't know if we'll get him b/c I don't see Hinshaw being retained ATP.

I don't see Hinshaw being a reason for a WR to bail on a commitment. Especially if he gets replaced by Tee Martin, which is an upgrade to say the least.

You or I may feel that way but he obviously has concerns. I think you should read post 720 in this thread again. Not trying to be a jerk but Harris is quoted that if Hinshaw isn't retained he will look around and take a visit to Oregon.
