is an excellent athlete who plays quarterback for Chester. He is a tremendous athlete who is difficult to tackle in the open field. When he takes off and runs, he is lethal with the football in his hands. He also has a good arm and throws an excellent football, but he projects as an athlete at the next level. He currently has 5 offers according to his Twitter account, but his last offer is from Temple back in February. Those offers could still be legit, or they could have changed since then. Regardless, Harris has the talent to be an excellent prospect at the next level.

6’1, 190 pounds. Several live evaluations under my belt, first identified by myself when Harris was just a freshman at Chester. A three-sport athlete.
Broke onto the recruiting scene after an early offer out of UConn, this in conjunction with his twin brother

hat, along with Kent State, this all prior to Harris’ Elite-11 Regional showing. UMass and Temple are also in the Chester passer. There will be some programs that will want to explore Harris at different positions, yet this is a QB first player. I’m willing to bet an FCS school swoops in late to honor his QB request. Unsure if Temple or UMass would be willing to give the keys to the offense to Harris, yet I wouldn’t be surprised to find out Harris is a G5-take at QB for more than one program.

is an absolute stud at quarterback. He is equally as good inside the pocket as he is outside the pocket. Inside the pocket, he has excellent fundamentals and he has pinpoint accuracy. Outside the pocket, he is an elite athlete. He does a good job of scrambling around and finding open receivers down the field. Harris is an elite quarterback.
Off-Season Update: Harris competed at the Elite 11 camp recently. He also competed at the Under Armour Camp. He recently picked up his 3rd offer from Kent State. He also has offers from Robert Morris and Uconn. I expect more offers to come his way.

One of the best QB prospects the class of 2026 has to offer currently.

‘s recruiting opened up after UConn and Robert Morris offered the Chester passer back in December. Despite every local FBS program knowing of Harris’ skillset, the year 2024 has been relatively quiet surrounding the Top Five quarterback. That is until Kent State offered Harris on May 1st, making it the second G5 program to pull the offer trigger on the All-State QB. Harris’ talents are Power Four worthy, my ranking says as much. MAC schools are hardly his ceiling, in my opinion.

does on the football field anymore. This being the fourth time I’ve seen him work in person, I still leave the game wondering how he doesn’t have multiple FBS offers to his name yet. I can’t stress this enough, this young man is not an athlete playing quarterback. There is nuance in his game, there’s attention to detail being paid. On what was a terribly windy outing, Harris continued to drop jaw-dropping dimes 30+ yards downfield. I won’t sugarcoat things, Harris wasn’t perfect against Chichester, yet I came away shaking my head at just how special a quarterback this young man has developed into. Holding safeties with his eyes, hitting timing routes accurately through the wind, his athleticism outside of the pocket, the arm angles he can throw with. More than anything, I got another look at

the talker, the leader. Calm yet energizing, a director for those not in the know inside the huddle. This kid is a bonafide stud.

moves down a couple notches, only because I figured he’d have a high-level offer at this point. The high praise on my end has set high expectations. I don’t plan on changing the young man’s grade, his tape has earned him this spot on our ranks regardless of recruitment status. Harris, Sidwar, and Beals separate themselves from the rest of the loaded pack. I’m expecting another electrifying season out of Harris and the Clippers. They won’t be catching anyone off guard this Fall. The state is fully aware of the special group they can deploy on both sides of the ball.
