Message: [QUOTE="BillSU, post: 4517435, member: 6809"] Great for Paul. How I remember him: [IMG]http://www.orangehoops.org/photos/Paul_Harris.jpg[/IMG] “Paul Harris was an explosive, 6’ 5” 220 lb, muscular forward for Syracuse basketball for three seasons. Harris came to Syracuse with extremely high expectations from Orange fans, many expecting him to be the next [URL='http://www.orangehoops.org/CAnthony.htm']Carmelo Anthony[/URL]. Harris had been a high school All-American at both Niagara Falls High School and Notre Dame Prep. He had a chiseled body and extremely long wingspan for a player of his size. Harris was not the next Melo, but he had an outstanding freshman season. He was a phenomenal rebounder averaging 7+ rebounds a game despite playing about 21 minutes a game. In the Big East tournament, he had 15 rebounds and 24 points against Notre Dame in the semi-final loss. He was explosive to the hoop with thunderous dunks, and was aggressive running the court. On defense he played solid in man to man, but struggled to fit into the [URL='http://www.orangehoops.org/JBoeheim.htm']Jim Boeheim[/URL] zone defense." Harris still remained a vital cog in the Orange scheme, and when he had a big night, the Orange typically did very well. In the win over Kansas to win the CBE Preseason championship he had 14 rebounds. His best effort of the year was in the historic [URL='http://www.orangehoops.org/Box%20Scores/20090312.htm']six overtime win[/URL] against Connecticut in the Big East tournament. Harris would play fifty six minutes that night, scoring a career high 29 points with 22 rebounds, and a critical 13 of 14 from the free throw line."
