One of Florida's hottest college football recruits will soon leave the board.
Jacksonville (Florida) Mandarin four-star defensive winger Brian Harris Will abandon most of his official visit schedule and make verbal commitments by the end of the month.
"It's May 23, after my spring game," Harris told the competitors. “I really want to commit to avoiding it and prepare for the future for me so that I can focus on this season.
“I feel that due to constant communication, I have approached several schools.”
The top 20 defensive end projections will call one of five finalists - Alabama,,,,, Michigan,,,,, Oklahora,,,,, Penn State University and South Carolina - Less than two weeks.
“I looked at how people guide and whether it matches my style of playing and how I like it,” Harris said. “I like to be hard-working and being aggressive. Also see how coaches and players react to each other and how players connect.
"I try to talk to the players themselves. The coach will give you good and glory about the school, but the players will bring you trivial tenacity and even the bad things they will give you everything."
Harris broke every finalist and why it surpassed a range of plans after its commitment.
Alabama: "'Bama has a historical plan to produce defensive linemen like other schools. They have a lot of great coaches and great experience. I love what they build there."
Michigan: "Michigan has shown a lot of love in defensive lineman coach Lou Esposito. They have a long history of defensive linemen... They may even be called DLU. Also known as head coach (Sherrone Moore) has shown a lot of love to me."
Oklahora: “OU has a lot of potential and consistency in terms of coaching and communicating with me. They think I’m the best priority on their board, which is a lot for me.”
Pennsylvania: “Pennsylvania State is a home outside because my dad was born and raised in Philadelphia.
South Carolina: "South Carolina was the first school to jump on the train and show me love. They did show that they were very attractive to me, they wanted me to come in first year and had a big impact - it showed me a miracle."
The plan for May 23 is to make a public decision in front of peers with high Mandarin.
