Dante has serious lift, which is something Akinjo lacked and hurt his ability to finish around the rim.

Really nice elevation and stability on his jump shot. Should be able to shoot over people which is something we really haven’t had the last few years.

I love his stoicism. His expression doesn't change, it's the same in every highlight and interview. He exudes extreme confidence, it makes me feel that he's an extremely hard worker and that he takes his development and basketball very seriously...He's a solider just point to the enemy.

He is a great person to I know his assistant coach and he said he is a good player and good kid.he is better than Akinjo right now. Probably can come in and start if need be.but will contribute right away,but he can start if coach wants him to.is best guard in the state of Tennessee.go Hoyas.

Forget the rankings he can come in and start and be a solid point guard from day 1 I am telling you because I know his assistant coach and seen him play. Better then akinjo was as a freshman right now. Many will be surprised not me he is a top point guard will be big east freshman for the year. He may not start at first by 7-9 games will be the starter talent rises to the top. Ewing will have to start him after he gets adjusted to college speed of the game. I can’t wait I know he is the answer at point guard. Go Hoyas ! Dante Harris the beast is coming. Reminds me of a smaller Allen iverson.

If he is 3/4 as good as David Edwards I w be ecstatic! I believe in Dante as well. The recruits in general look like a very solid group.

I really hope you're right on this one. Given our departures, we could use that kind of immediate boost. I like what the tape shows and what I've read about his makeup. |

Let’s hope he gets to play as a freshman. The way things are going now, I’m not totally convinced school is back in session by August.

I also am very high on Dante but you can't throw a AI comparison that lightly. Nobody is overlooking a AI type talent nowadays. I to believe he will be our starting PG but lets not put that type of expectations on the board....

I am not saying ai in he is ai ,I am saying ai in the explosive jumping ability and the ability to finish from a small guard.that is what I am saying.not saying he is ai,the explosive and finishes reminiscent of ai from a small guard. He can leap.and shoot the 3. I love his game.

I can’t claim to know anything about Harris other than what I’ve read about him (mostly on here), but as much information that is out there in recruiting these days, I’d say there’s virtually no chance that a guy of his ranking will be the BE freshman of the year.
I will happily admit I’m wrong in a year, but there’s a greater chance he doesn’t play more than 10 mins a game than he does starting for us.
