FROSH PROFILE: TOBIAS HARRIS

Tennessee’s early season was overshadowed over the actions taken against UT coach Bruce Pearl, but the Volunteers, after one poor stretch, mostly have enjoyed strong wins and now stand 4-2 in the SEC. One key for the Vols has been Tobias Harris, the big-time freshman who checked in at No. 6 in our final rankings for the prep Class of 2010.

Harris currently ranks second on the team in scoring at just under 15 points per game, and he’s also contributing 7.7 rebounds per night. His shooting isn’t bad (44 percent) for a young player pushed into an essential role, and as his shot selection improves — his overall percentage is dragged down by 30 percent shooting from behind the arc — he’ll become more efficient.

As it is, Harris has demonstrated the versatility we hailed him for at the prep level, particularly during the summer prior to his senior year. He has put up consistent scoring numbers yet not forgotten that he needs to use his size on the backboards as well, and certainly he has lived up to his immense reputation.
