Oklahoma Sooners receive crystal ball for transfer wide receiver Tre Harris

The Oklahoma Sooners earned a crystal ball prediction for Louisiana Tech transfer WR Tre Harris from Brandon Drumm of OUInsider.

In the early stages of the 2022-2023 transfer portal, one thing became abundantly clear. The Oklahoma Sooners were looking to add a wide receiver with bona fide production at the collegiate level.

With several offers out there, it appears Oklahoma has zeroed in on Louisiana Tech transfer wide receiver Tre Harris. Brandon Drumm of OUInsider at 247Sports issued a crystal ball on Tuesday projecting Harris to the Oklahoma Sooners.

Harris, a former high school quarterback, is 6 feet, 2 inches and weighs just over 200 pounds. Over the last two seasons with the Bulldogs, Harris has averaged more than 14 yards per reception and scored 14 touchdowns, including 10 in 2022.

In 2022, the former three-star wide receiver caught 65 passes for 935 yards and those 10 touchdowns.

Harris was primarily an outside receiver for Lousiana Tech and did most of his damage within 20 yards of the line of scrimmage. According to Pro Football Focus, Harris caught 43 of 72 targets in the short to the intermediate passing game for 541 yards and seven touchdowns. He had some success down the field, catching 9 of 18 targets 20-plus yards down the field for 311 yards and two touchdowns.

He did get some action at or behind the line of scrimmage, catching all 12 of his targets for 73 yards and a touchdown. Harris led La. Tech in first-down receptions and was ninth in Conference USA with 37.

An All-Conference USA first-team selection, Harris was sixth in the conference in yards and tied for third in touchdowns.

Harris would be a strong addition to the Oklahoma Sooners’ wide receiver room whether Marvin Mims returns or not. His size and presence would give Dillon Gabriel and Jeff Lebby a guy that can help move the chains on offense, something they struggled to do with any consistency in 2022.

Tre Harris has two more years of eligibility but would be an immediate difference-maker for the Sooners in 2023.
