USF making strong push for Jesuit's Harris

If the Bulls can't encourage Jesuit ATH Travell Harris to sign with them Wednesday, it won't be for a lack of effort.

We've learned USF is applying a full-court press to Harris, led by running backs coach (and local recruiting ace) Shaun King. Helping the Bulls' cause is the fact C Cameron Ruff and DE Vincent Jackson are Jesuit alumni. Harris also got an in-home visit from Charlie Strong two weeks ago.

Harris, who has narrowed his list to USF, FAU, Washington State and Arizona, is scheduled to sign at Jesuit at 7:30 a.m. Wednesday.

It's believed the Bulls consider Harris -- a two-star prospect according to 247Sports -- a 2017 sleeper who simply was overshadowed in high school by all-time Hillsborough County rushing leader Malik Davis (a Florida commitment).
