Harris’ commitment continues the strong recruiting presence West Virginia holds in Ohio and with the All-Ohio Red summer team. The Mountaineers’ 2021 recruiting class is comprised of a pair of Ohioans — Kobe Johnson and Seth Wilson —  while the current roster is anchored by Buckeye state natives Deuce McBride and Derek Culver.

Harris held more than a dozen offers, and chose the Mountaineers over a final group that included Cincinnati, Georgia Tech, Kansas State, Ohio State, Virginia Tech and Xavier.
