Very nice pick up—always nice to sign a recruit coming off official visit to PAC12 team. For the record Walker is nowhere near the athlete Gary is. And really it’s not even close—not that it matters now. Gary’s upside is off the charts, Great job by Carm closing the deal and Coach Simon for being primary recruiter.
Gary immediately gives Carm several options – love it!!! MAAC is screwed!!! LOL

Knowing the skeptical nature of the Siena fan base I expect another concern will emerge shortly. It is the off season after all.

Holy Crap when have we ever actually landed a recruit from someone who called us Siena University. Quite the list of schools we beat out too!

If you’re a Siena fan you have to be ecstatic this morning. Great job by coach Simon and Carm. Welcome GH Jr!
Harris is an athlete and I’ve been harping for years that we need to get more athletic. I couldn’t be happier about this signing. Hopefully Webster is next, he’s another that would go a long way in increasing our overall athleticism.
Very excited about the Carm era! Great things lie ahead.

Who suggested we have no chance at a kid who calls us Siena University? I'm glad that string has been broken, and to get a kid who had a Big 12 and a PAC-12 offer is really impressive. Great job by Carm and staff. Welcome to Siena, Gary! I hope in a year or two we are saying, "Shawn who?" Don't worry I already owned up to it! Welcome to Siena Warrior Harris!

Nice Recruit. Congrats to Coach Carm and his staff. The program is in good hands and the Saints roster is starting to look solid for the next few years. Hopefully this will squash the naysayers and negative comments on here.... at least for today. Go Saints!

Upgrade is possible but remains to be seen. Walker was just as athletic but with a pg handle. If they get Webster or Moore, you'll get your additional PG handle from them. You'll find Harris' superior defense compared to Walker more useful than ball handling. Settle this argument- get GW on schedule 😈

I can smell the fear building in other MAAC programs, a quick check on social media and you see Iona and MAAC posters starting to shit their pants, you hear comments how Don isn’t that good, Elijah isn’t anything special, who cares on Harris, Sloan can't rebound, Webster isn’t anything all his offers dried up… too funny, me thinks Iona fans protest too much. Carm still has to prove he can coach - But so far he is handling things perfect. He said he would be selective in recruits and so far he has been. It’s a good time to be a Siena fan!!!

great news...........this is a really excellent addition to the roster, and he would have been an awesome pickup had he signed early but the fact we ended up getting him late is a even more amazing.................positive vibes out on Webster, would be another "key" piece to add..............go Carm (and staff) go.................
