Tyler Harris - SF - Hollow Hills Hs West - Dix Hills, NY - NC STATE

Anyone else think he finishes his career at Hofstra?

Maybe Iona just for you

Incidently, Iona is hosting Hofstra this year.

Hofstra is picked to finish in the upper half of the CAA despite all of the players they've lost.

IONA will spank them, just like last year at Hofstra. Glover might drop 40

Tyler Harris, the younger brother of Tobias Harris, will reclassify to the Class of 2012 and enroll in prep school after graduation. Harris and his brother both started elementary school a year early, according to their father, Torrel.

“At this point in Tyler’s career,  I think he will benefit from regaining the year he missed in order to mature mentally and physically,” Torrel wrote in an email. “We have decided as a family that after graduation from high school at Half Hollow Hills High School West he will enroll as a post grad at an undecided prep school, re-classifying as a graduate of his actual class, 2012.”

Tyler holds offers from UConn, Duquesne, Tennessee, Hofstra, Delaware and Fordham, according to his father.

Is Uconn the new SJU. Not exactly impressive company on that list.

If you think about it, and guys like Calhoun and Boeheim retire what's going to get kids to go to college in the middle nowhere?

Syracuse is already grooming Mike Hopkins to be Boeheim's replacement. That never works out well.

This an old article.  Have Tyler and his father actually decided to reclassify?  I haven't heard any news about this actually taking place.

I think you may wanna move this back to 2011.

A very old article, Poison.  I don't know why that particular article was dugged up.  Harris had better schools then those listed recently targeting him.

He's actually down to St. John's, NC State and Providence.

Here is an article from yesterday, per Projo.com (Providence-based site)....

The Friars are clearly looking for a point man and also a scoring wing. The top hope on the wing is Tyler Harris, the 6-7 forward from Dix Hills, N.Y. who visited with Boatright last week. Harris' father, Torrell Harris, said a few days ago that his son will announce his school on November 5 and is down to PC, North Carolina State, St. John's and Iowa. Harris will visit SJU a few days before his announcement and there is growing speculation that he may want to join what is one of the best classes of recruits for 2011 at St. John's. We'll see.

I would never discourage a top 100 player from coming here but with all the higher ranked wings we are bringing in its surprising he's still considering us. I know that Lavin has a plan for him and will sell that to him and his father on their visit so I wouldn't be surprised to see him commit here. It can't hurt to have a bunch of talented wings who are long and tall and capable of playing multiple positions but I'm just surprised to see him visiting but thats Lavin for you.

I'm also shocked that we're still in for Harris.  I figured he would've took us off his list after Pointer committed.  Not to mention, he's taking an official visit here, as well.

I, remember hearing he could grow a couple of inches before it's all said and done.  I'm not sure there is any merit to that scenario, but it's been floated out there. 

Maybe, he grows to 6'10" and be a threat in the post and on the perimeter.  We might be able to bring him along slowly, considering there will be other quality players on the roster. 

Never know....  He could turn out to be a quality 3-4 year player.

along the lines of reclassifying...do you think there is any chance you sell this kid on coming and being a redshirt for a year since he is a year younger rather than going to prep school. it would allow him to develop and practice with the core group of incomming frosh but also be a body that stays after this huge class moves on

Can Tyler play inside? Because that would make him a valuable addition.

He's not coming here.

He's not coming here.

Rightly so, he should go somewhere where he will get time

I have heard Providence fro ma few people but who knows..!!

I've heard Providence too, from some of the recruiting bloggers.

PC wouldn't be a bad look for him. He could be Gomes-esque there.

Seems like a good decisions by him. He seems to be very much a wing player and we have three very good SFs already with Garret still considering us.

I dont think Garret is coming here. I hope we just focus on Pele and Gods gift or that JUCO big and save another scholi for 2012
