The decision is coming this week. Seven schools on the short list of Tobias Harris are all awaiting his decision. For a long time it’s been Syracuse so I guess that makes them a slight favorite. What a fit he would be for Maryland. I know it’s doubtful but my fingers are crossed.

Tobias Harris’ Dad Heaps Praise on Gary Williams and Maryland

Zagsblog.com reports today that Tobias Harris’ trip to College Park went very well. “The trip to Maryland went well,” said his father, Torrel. “We visited the business school and it was awesome, particularly the entrepreneur department. We meet with the head of admissions. We watched Maryland’s first game of the year [an 89-51 rout of Charleston Southern on Friday]. The fans are crazy and fun. My family had a great sit-down meeting with Gary Williams, who I value as a great coach because he always finds a way to beat Duke and North Carolina with less talent, without All-American players every year. He helps a lot of his players reach their potential. Tobias is visiting Georgia Tech today and will make his decision later in the week.

The Terrapin Basketball coaches are everywhere these days. It seems like their push for Tobias Harris is intensifying. From terrapintimes.com comes the following synopsis on Harris:

“Still physically developing, Harris has an advanced skill level as a hybrid forward. He handles the ball at a high level and can score it with touch from the outside and also score inside with more of a power game. Best suited to guard a four man, Harris is a difficult match up for opposing four men with his versatile skill set.”

Tobias Harris, one of the most highly ranked power forwards in the country has cut down his list of possible schools to 7. What pains me is the presence of Calipari and Kentucky and the fact that he is going to Kentucky for their Midnite Madness.
