#90

There are now 90 days until the Hoosiers season opener against Ohio State on August 31st. The current number 90 is big defensive tackle Juan Harris.

Juan Harris (Freshman)

-Height: 6’3”

-Weight: 370 pounds

-Hometown: Janesville, Wisconsin

-Position: Defensive Tackle

It’s hard to miss Juan Harris when you watch IU take the field, as he is one of the biggest players on the field. Oh and he is just a true freshman as well. Harris enrolled early at IU and participated in spring practice, where he worked on trying to break into the defensive line rotation. Harris was a star in high school and took home all-state honors twice as well as being named both his team’s best defensive lineman and MVP. He also threw shot put and discus at Parker H.S.

The big guy from Wisconsin has a terrific shot to play as a true freshman and he helped himself by being with IU for spring practice. Harris is very quick, but needs to get in better shape so he can be more than just a one-series rotation player. He is a load to deal with and could make losing Ralph Green in the middle of the defensive line a little bit easier.
