Overview
- CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz reported Harris will become Florida's defensive backs coach, with multiple outlets saying the move is expected but not yet official.
- Florida moved to secure Harris after days of expectation he would take the same role at Florida State, where no paperwork had been finalized.
- Harris helped UCF rank 25th nationally in pass defense this season at 185.1 passing yards allowed per game.
- He signed a two-year UCF deal in February at $275,000 annually that includes a buyout equal to 50% of remaining salary, subject to exceptions.
- The addition would bolster Jon Sumrall’s first staff and provide a South Florida recruiting pipeline alongside hires such as Buster Faulkner, Brad White and Phil Trautwein.
