Kiffin optimistic about Tre Harris return
Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin gave an update on injured star receiver Tre Harris Wednesday afternoon. The long-awaited news was positive, as Kiffin revealed that Harris is cleared to play again this season and could be back on the field as early as this week against Florida.
“Tre’s been great,” Kiffin said on the SEC coaches teleconference on Wednesday. “Been awesome having him back out there. To be fully loaded, whole team and offense has been great. Great feeling to have that back. The nation’s toughest receiver in the country. So, it’s been great to have him back out there.”
Harris was off to one of the best starts of any player in the country at the start of the season, racking up over 800 yards receiving in just five games. Despite missing three games completely, he still leads the SEC in receiving yards with 987 and has six touchdowns as well.
The Rebels (8-2, 4-2) head to Gainesville to play Florida (5-5, 3-4) Saturday at 11:00 AM CT.
