Harris ready for SEC visit

Haynesville (La.) 2018 defensive end Jalan Harris is drawing attention from across the country, and is beginning to build some strong bonds with a few college coaches. This weekend he plans to take an SEC unofficial visits.

THE LATEST: Harris is receiving attention from LSU, Arkansas, Florida State, Miami, Ole Miss, USC, and Louisiana Tech, and he has already developed a strong bond with LSU's Steve Ensminger and Arkansas' Michael Smith. He was going to take his first unofficial visit of the 2015 season to Arkansas when the Razobacks hosted Auburn, but the weather did not cooperate. This weekend he will visit Baton Rouge when the LSU Tigers host the Arkansas Razorbacks with 2018 Haynesville teammate Jamarceon Jackson.

IN HIS WORDS: On what he's most looking forward to about his trip to LSU: "Just going to have a good time and I hope LSU comes out with a win. Meet coaches, see other prospects, and just have fun."

On what he is hearing from LSU: "I've been hearing from coach Emsminger a lot. Me and him talk on the phone and are real good friends. He tells me all the time how he's going to come visit me and to keep my grades up. I went to their camp this summer and did well out there. He gave me some more good words and he introduced me to the linemen coach and I learned a lot of good stuff from them."
