I agree Paul Harris was a better player than any of the players you have listed, but the thread is about disappointments, not about general ability/contribution.  That means comparing expectations to actual contributions.
 
Guys like Sam Spann, Greg Davis and David Patrick were nobodies in high school.  
 
Harris was hyped more, IMHO, than any player we have ever recruited, with the possible exception of Carmelo. 
 
How could you be more disappointed with what Greg Davis did in college than with what Paul Harris did?
 
Again, I loved Paul Harris at times as much as any player we have had here.  And was more frustrated with him than any other player we have had as well.  But I will support and enjoy watching any player who played as hard to Paul did.  He was often a joy to watch, and often almost killed me as well.   He was a fine player, the reason he was disappointing is all about the ridiculously high expectations surrounding him as he arrived on campus. 
 
God love him, I wish him the best wherever he is these days, whatever he is doing.
