Somebody asked this in the recruiting thread, but what's up with Harris? His recruitment has flown so far under the radar. Not a whole lot of offers for his ranking, no CBs, and barely any mention of him in our own threads.

I got really really hype because I thought the thread meant this Anthony Harris was committing today.

Let's get all the Anthony Harrisses!

I found TKP after two rails from TOTS then walking back to my apartment and re-watching the 2012 Sugar Bowl. I woke up the next day with this username.

CBs show UNC 100%

I feel good, I think we got this........

CB's show 100% UNC, and yet his interest with them is "cool". Virginia Tech is the only school with "warm" interest.

NerdMagic's picture NerdMagic | 8 years 4 weeks # ^

You mean the 1 CB that is in is UNC. Statistically, that is 100% but it is also one CB away from being 0%.

UNC can always sell that they never had to suspend a player due to academics, and the family atmosphere exemplified by their motto "This iz hom".

No clue here tbh. The 247 guys say he has academic issues and probably couldn't get in to VT right now, so that makes me think UT will be the choice.

Makes perfect sense now.

To my knowledge, UT hasn't been recruiting him... I don't know if he's even been to their campus.

Further - I know we haven't been recruiting him in a while because of these concerns.

That's ok, it appears we can still get 2 years of play (or one year plus a redshirt) if you are not good at school /S

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"

Anthony Harris is committing in 5 hours, and still only has one CB, does anyone else find that a little strange?

Maybe he just hasn't told anyone anything or his parents have kept their lips sealed or maybe he doesn't really exist...

peterb94's picture peterb94 | 8 years 4 weeks # ^

I tried to find any interviews or any info on him and couldn't really. His twitter is not active at all and doesn't have anything about football outside of a few highlight videos. He did post a lot of basketball related stuff (don't worry I double checked that it wasn't this Anthony Harris) so maybe he is trying to be a 2 sport athlete and so his recruitment was tough to follow? I can't do much besides speculate, but at least from a visibility standpoint I can see why his CBs are so low considering I can't find much of an interview with the kid.
