Five-Star Target A.J. Harris Nearing Decision, Hopes To Make Commitment This Month

MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif. – Dating back to when he was a sixth-grader, A.J. Harris has heard the same simple message from his trainer of more than four years.

“That I'd be a Buckeye,” says Harris, a five-star cornerback, with a smile.

He’s “the biggest” Ohio State fan Harris knows. Ryan Day certainly appreciates his trainer’s help as he tries to make him a foundational piece of his program’s 2023 class. The third-year head coach sent Harris’ trainer an autographed photo of himself, thanking him “for everything,” just last week. Two weeks prior, Day had FaceTimed him during Harris’ mid-June unofficial visit in Columbus.
