After one year at Texas A&M, former five-star Denver Harris decided to enter the transfer portal. It only took him a few weeks to find his new home.
Taking to Twitter on Thursday, Harris announced he was transferring to LSU and joining the Tigers. “Turn it off #GBG,” Harris wrote.
As a true freshman in 2022, Harris appeared in five games, recording 14 tackles and three passes defended for the Aggies. He had two of his best games against the Mississippi State Bulldogs and Alabama Crimson Tide.
Harris’ tweet went viral with more than 1,500 likes in just a few minutes. LSU fans quickly welcome him into the fold.
FOX’s Garland Gillen wrote: “#DBU lands one of the best players in the country, former 5-star recruit Denver Harris. Much getting for LSU.”
Texas A&M Transfer Denver Harris #LSU Declaration of commitment. The Tigers were playing strong a year ago when the North Shore star was coming out of high school as one of the best cornerbacks in the country. Louisiana sportswriter Gerrit Rooster noted that he hung out at home, “but now it’s Kalen Baton Rouge.”
247Sports ranked Harris as the No. 23 prospect overall in the class of 2022. He was the No. 4 cornerback in the country and the No. 6 prospect from Texas.
