After defeating the Gators 41-17 in August, the Miami Hurricanes have secured another victory over their rival by landing DB coach Will Harris.

The 36-year-old Harris, who will lead the safety room at Miami, is considered one of the best young defensive backs coaches in America.

Harris joined the Gators for the 2024 season after serving as the assistant DB coach for the Los Angeles Chargers. The Gators improved +63 spots in pass efficiency defense and +83 spots in interceptions per game under Harris.

Before his stint in the NFL, Harris spent one season as defensive coordinator at Georgia Southern. He previously coached eight NFL Draft picks at the University of Washington.

I’ve always thought he’s a respected coach. From a technical sense. Comes from a good tree.

My thoughts on him as a recruiter weren’t good last cycle and he was hired late but it was a brief period and it’s NIL era. Much different results this year in a full cycle but I didn’t follow it closely.
