Interesting tidbit about Taj Harris

[JRHEETER]

Taj just posted on his Instagram that if Syracuse makes a bowl game this season, he only needs to average 80 yards per game to become the all time leading receiver in yards for Syracuse.

If Syracuse doesn’t make a bowl game it averages out to 87 yards a game.

Havent fact checked it all but found it fascinating that it was seemingly pretty attainable for him.

He needs 1,035 yards to break Ish's career record. If he eclipses the mark, he'll be just the 7th Cuse receiver to eclipse 1,000 yards in a season, but the 4th under Babers.

Said another way, if he gets 1,000 yards, the offensive line is probably much improved from last season.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

He's our most established star on offense, and a senior. I think he's lined up to have a huge season.

And he can come back for another year. Although, if he doesn't want the * he's going to want to break it this year.

 

[upperdeck]

i doubt if he has a 1000ish season he comes back anyway

I say go for it Taj. If he gets it it will mean we had a good season.

why would he post that?

 

[hoopsupstate]

Gilbert needs to get creative to find ways to get the ball in Harris’s hands. They need to move him all over the field.

 

[JRHEETER]

why would he post that?

Im not sure? Probably because he is excited about the chance of setting a record?

 

[ImperialOrange]

Scenes when he gets there before game 7.

 

[Trueblue25]

Think this board’s watched Harris grow up. Hopefully he pulls it together this year and focuses. He has a gift. Would love to see him put it al together

 

[bevosu]

I always liked Taj, even when he acted like a nut. He has some flash on the field. Wish we would have had a better offensive line and passing QB to take a little more advantage of his talent.

I didn’t expect you to have the answer. Just never seen a player post about a record they might set.

Might be trying to get some of that sweet, sweet NIL $$$.

 

[AngryOtto]

Hopefully does not throw a fit if the ball is not thrown at him every play.

I wish the entire team had the same passion.

Come on. Just because someone doesn’t throw temper tantrum’s on the field doesn’t mean they don’t have passion. Also I don’t think Taj “passion” is for the team all the time.

Some other fan posted it and I think tagged him. So he just shared that info. I don't think he searched it out. It landed in his lap.

I sure don't. Don't think I've seen an Orange as capable of negatively effecting teammates mid-game in all my years watching.

 

[RandomGuy]

why would he post that?

I would argue, that in the NIL age, its a wise move to post such things. And here we are, talking about Taj Harris.

 

[ConnectiCuse]

It looks like 89 receptions would also get him the career mark for that as well.

is he getting $100 per mention here? Lol.

I guess NIL is the new cover all?

Hahh. No, but publicizing yourself isn't a bad idea. Normally I'd prefer humility, but with the possibility of monetary gain, it makes sense.

 

[Trueblue25]

let the kid brag, he spent a portion of last season in the news for all the wrong reasons. Lets root on his senior year.

 

[JRHEETER]

I just want to say I didn’t really care that he posted it

I just was shocked that he was that close.

I mean we knew he was good but I definitely didn’t think he would be that close to setting the record.
