Apparently he had an offer from LA-Lafayette and possibly others. The article definitely could be a factor. And sometimes jucos just don’t get much attention. IIRC Wm Jackson had no other offers coming out of junior college. My recruiting goals at this point are a JC cornerback and Chaney, the OT from Elsik. Also wouldn’t mind a 320 JC road paver to replace Mason Denley at left guard. I know we offered a big kid from NY who was considering us.

We have DTs but if you’re waiting for an Ed look-alike, I think we’ll all be dead before that happens. Nevertheless, more depth inside would be helpful.
Yep. 40 years between Ed and Wilson Whitley.
So Harris did have other major offers. Got that from a premium board so wouldn’t be ethical to divulge them, but he is a prize, no doubt.

Looking at Rivals, they show him having a UCF and Louisiana Lafayette offer. Wouldn’t be surprised if he had more.
As far as his stats this year, he didn’t transfer to JUCO until late August. Guessing he wasn’t happy with how things were going at Baylor and left late.
Needless to say, this kid is good and could be a major part of things next year.

We may never see an Ed Oliver again, but I would be very very happy to have a Hosea Taylor and a Leonard Mitchell…

Here is a video of Justin Harris. BIGGGG dude and a little bit of a mean streak to him. The more I look at who we are picking up on defense the more I think we are going to be ok despite our losses.

When you look at the whole picture both Mitchell and Taylor, along with Whitley had more productive careers. Of course these guys had more talent around them but at the same time played against much better competition.
Not taking away anything from Oliver, but he had two good years while the others played all four years and were all drafted high…

And one more thing, get us into a P5 conference and I bet we have a shot at recruiting athletes like Oliver…just sayin’

UH would be bringing in top 10 classes. I’m just tired of being treated like a 3rd world country or division 2 school.

And that’s what the B12 coaches are afraid of. They don’t want more competition in recruiting and on the field.

Sooo, what does this mean?
Means he won’t be attending UH in the Fall and we lose another from this class.
