Depth Chart Overview
Harris did not see the field in his first season on the Plains and there is a chance that happens again in 2023. That doesn’t mean his development is behind, it just takes time for offensive linemen to adjust to college and he is getting valuable reps at guard.
He will have a chance to compete for a bigger role for the 2024 season and move forward as he continues to grow his game.
