LB Harris commits to Herd

Kellen Harris clearly is Mark Snyder’s type of player. The Pennsylvania high school linebacker adds Marshall’s football coach speed and a physical edge to this season’s prospective recruiting class. The Sharon High School senior is Marshall’s eighth verbal commitment and second from Pennsylvania in less than a week. Expect at least one more commitment, likely on the defensive side, later this week. Also, those buying into the John David Weed rumors (Weed is a junior college quarterback) can sell their stock. Marshall appears finished in its recruitment of quarterbacks.
