Georgia football offers 4-star Florida DB

Class of 2023 defensive back recruit Daniel Harris has great length and is rated as a four-star recruit.

Class of 2023 defensive back recruit Daniel Harris has great length and is rated as a four-star recruit. Harris has now received a scholarship offer from the University of Georgia.

The four-star cornerback plays high school football for Gulliver Prep in Miami, Florida. He has offers from top college football programs like Texas A&M, Florida, Penn State, Miami, Michigan, Ohio State, and more.

The 6-foot-2, 190-pound defensive back is rated as the No. 344 recruit in the class of 2023. Harris is the No. 33 cornerback in the cycle. Harris’ brother, Donell Harris, plays for the Texas A&M Aggies.

Daniel Harris has good speed and runs track for his high school. As a defensive back, Harris does a good job of reading the quarterback. He pins receivers to the sideline and uses his size well in coverage. Harris is a willing run defender, but will have to be more conservative in his tackling methods at the college level.

The Gulliver Prep star announced his offer from Georgia via his Twitter account:

This 2023 in-state 4-star DE has Florida in his top three

4-star from Central Florida has UF in his top three after visiting the Swamp.

Four-star weakside defensive end Daniel Harris is seriously considering Florida as he narrows down his options, according to Rivals. Harris told Gators Territory that Florida was in his current top three along with Notre Dame and Auburn.

Only a junior, Harris’ list could change at any time, and he says that Tennessee is recruiting him the hardest. Florida has the home-field advantage with Harris at Palm Bay High in Melbourne.

Running backs coach and special teams coordinator Greg Knox has developed a relationship with Harris and thinks he could play some outside linebacker for Florida in the future. Harris is the seventh-best WDE in the country, according to Rivals, and he sits at No. 155 overall. 247Sports is a little less high on Harris rating him a three-star prospect, but his composite rating has him at No. 14 for edge rushers in the nation.

Harris visited recently for the Vanderbilt game and said he’ll likely return to Gainesville on an unofficial visit later this year. He’s deciding between the Samford and Florida State game right now.

Florida has four commits so far in its recruiting class of 2023, and most of them are on the other side of the ball. At 6-feet-5-inches and 180 pounds, Harris would be a fine addition to the Florida defense. A decision is still far away, but Florida is making its mark on a solid player close to home.
