Tyler Harris Making a Name for Himself
by Alex Schwartz
The younger brother of class of 2010 top 10 prospect Tobias Harris, a Tennessee-bound McDonald’s All-American, Tyler Harris '12 sometimes gets overshadowed, but that is beginning to change. With his brother graduating soon and Tyler coming into his own as a player at Half Hollow Hills West (NY), the younger Harris’ stock has risen and he is drawing interest from a plethora of college programs.
Virginia Tech, South Florida, Washington, Wisconsin, Boston College, Seton Hall, UConn, West Virginia, Tennessee, Georgia Tech, Maryland, and North Carolina State are the schools on Tyler Harris’ list. The 6’8, 190-pound wing said that he has “no favorites yet”.

He claims offers from UConn, Boston College, Seton Hall, North Carolina State, Hofstra, Fordham, and Duquesne. Asked if the three mid-major programs are being seriously considered, Harris replied, “Not really, but they still are.”
“Me and him always have been playing together all our life and it would be good if we played against each other one time. I would like that more,” said Tyler on his thoughts about playing with Tobias in college, adding that “yes”, he would prefer to go to a school besides Tennessee since Tobias will be there.
