"I love the place," Harris said speaking with Volquest. "It's not to far from home and the coaching staff was great. I like coach (Montario) Hardesty. He is from here and we talk all the time. The coaches told me that I needed to focus on academics and they are the only school to do that."
"I think I bring a lot to the table with my effort and how I work," Harris said. "I think I bring good ball skills and I love to tackle and make contact." "They want me to play a little bit of everywhere because of my footwork and my ability to get downhill and fill in the gaps, I can fit well in their defense."
Tennessee had tandem recruited Harris with safeties coach Charles Kelly, tight ends coach Brian Niedermeyer and linebackers coach Chris Rumph all taking their shot at the talented safety. "I feel like they are like father figures," Harris said. "I'm basing everything off how they talk to me. They will coach me up and I believe them."
"He's long and and lean," Havelock head coach Caleb King said. "His best years are ahead of him. He's gained almost twenty pounds this off-season. He's right at 180 pounds.He's done a great job getting stronger. We didn't have him in the state title game last year because he broke his collarbone in our second round playoff game. He tried to play through it which tells you how tough he is.
