Harris Hits Georgetown; Virginia Next

Tobias Harris may end up seeing every major Division I program in the nation before this summer ends.

The 6-foot-8 Long Island native visted Georgetown with his father on Tuesday after seeing Maryland Monday. Virginia is up today.

“It was another terrific day for Tobias at Georgetown University,” Torrel Harris said by email. “Tobias had a great meeting with (the) Georgetown coaches, reviewing game film of Georgetown games showing how Tobias’ style of play fits into Georgetown’s style.

“Tobias also met with Georgetown’s academic advisor and strength and conditioning
coach. Tobias played pick-up game with Jeff Green of the Seattle Super Sonics (now Oklahoma City) and the Georgetown players, he came away very impressed with the history of the school basketball program, the academics and all the coaches.”

Harris has a ton of offers and has been a prime recruiting target of Rutgers coach Fred Hill.
