When I was at LSU, he held the door open for me at Lockett Hall. I'm willing to bet most high profile football players wouldn't do that. Good for him. Hope he's successful.

My son who was 10 at the time saw him in Buffalo wild wings and went up and talked to him. He was very nice and didn't mind at all.

didn't exactly have the best attitude about it either


I see people say this and call him a whiny bitch like the other poster and I just don't remember that. I could have missed some stuff but I distinctly remember being happy hearing his interviews after bad games bc he was mature and humble. The comparison back then was to Jordan Jefferson and JJ would have a stat line of 8/21, 81 yards with a pick and say "I think I played a good game. I think I made great decisions." BH would have a similar line and say "I'm better than I played. I have to do better than this. The team needs me to play better."

I don't know. My recollection of him back then was good kid, bad performances.

When I was at LSU, I saw him at L'Auberge right before the 2016 season. Easiest way to pay players pre NIL was in casino chips.

we're at the same blackjack table and I (correctly) hit on a 16 with dealer showing a face. I get a face card and bust out. Harris is playing 1k per hand, doubles (after I hit) his 11 and gets a 4. Dealer flips over and has 18. Harris loses 2k, I lose $50. He was not very pleased.

Weird of folks in here to dismiss Harris bc of his playing days. The sports world is loaded with guys who were terrible as players

That was all Miles. I he runs Guice instead of insisting on running Fournette into a 8 man box we win.

Not glad to see him doing anything. He was a whiny bitch and a terrible football player. Don’t wish him success at anything.

He was still a young 20 year old kid.

Lighten up a-hole. Even science tells us the brain doesn’t function optimally at that age… unless your name is Joe Burrow.
