Future Tiger Showing Off Speed, Breaking Records
By: Staff Report April 24, 2024

A future member of the Clemson football program has been showing off his elite speed this offseason, and breaking records in the process.

Highly regarded Clemson commit Tae Harris is a four-star defensive back in the 2025 class, as well as a back-to-back region track champion.

The Cedartown (Ga.) High School standout recently posted a personal record of 10.60 in the 100-meter dash, and a personal record of 21.70 in the 200-meter dash – both of which are new school records.

Those are impressive accomplishments for Harris, who committed to Clemson on March 18 after decommitting from Georgia on Jan. 21.

Harris is one of the prized prospects in the Tigers’ 2025 class, which currently consists of 11 pledges and ranks No. 5 nationally per the 247Sports Composite.

The 6-foot, 195-pound rising senior is ranked as a top-125 national recruit by most of the major services. ESPN considers Harris the No. 5 safety and No. 60 overall prospect nationally in the 2025 class.

As a junior on the gridiron in 2023, he tallied 44 tackles, three forced fumbles and six pass breakups while playing both ways and also posting 600-plus scrimmage yards and nine touchdowns on offense.
