As of a couple of hours ago, the senior playmaker committed to in-state Campbell University. He has accounted for over 2,000 yards so far in 2026, with 906 yards and 11 touchdowns coming through the air. He has been his most effective, using his 4.3 speed, rushing for a team-lead of 1,225 yards and 18 touchdowns. He rushed for over 100 yards on seven occasions this year, averaging 136 yards per game. He also has nearly 15 yards per carry, averaging 14.9 yards each time he runs the ball.

Perhaps the most obvious inclusion on this list, Harris will be inside the Top 100 when we update rankings. A true athlete, I think he could play quarterback for a Division II or FCS school, but his straight-line speed, overall football instincts, and lateral agility suggest he could thrive at the FBS level as a receiver or defensive back. I’m interested to see if FBS schools step up to offer him, or if he’s going to be an FCS steal.

Harris exploded in week two, rushing for 179 yards and 3 touchdowns, cruising to a 35-32 win. He also threw for 165 yards and two more touchdowns, accounting for 344 yards and 5 touchdowns for the Warriors. Harris is a legitimate prospect for Hunt, and could carry them on a deep playoff run in 2026.

Harris initially transferred out of Hunt to become a multifaceted athlete elsewhere, but returned later in the offseason. I’m selfishly excited that one of the top dual-threat quarterbacks in the state will continue to play the position in 2026. Harris can fly (4.45 verified speed), and he’s equally as explosive. He’s incredibly strong and has a strong case for being the most athletic player in the state.

Mez Harris Mez Harris 5'11" | 185 lbs | ATH Hunt | 2027 State NC earned Quarterback MVP honors after delivering the most dominant performance at the position throughout the 910 Classic. Harris, who led Hunt High School to the state championship game last season, carried that momentum into the offseason and showcased why he is regarded as one of the state’s top signal-callers. Displaying impressive arm strength, accuracy, decision-making, and leadership, Harris consistently separated himself from a talented quarterback group during camp competition. His ability to make plays from the pocket while also extending drives with his athleticism made him a difficult matchup for defenders all day. Harris will look to build on his breakout campaign after transferring to Millbrook High School in Raleigh, the reigning state runner-up, where expectations will be high as he prepares for the upcoming season.
