It's not. offical visit they can pay for planes trains and automobiles.I didn't think NCAA rules allowed that for an unofficial visit.
I think the big difference is that CMC ran kids out of the program that weren't "his guys." My guess is that they weren't buying into the new regime or changing their habits and he wasn't going to allow those guys to continue to be a negative influence. Fair or not a new staff is going to favor their recruits opposed to the left overs to a certain degree. CMC took the reigns and laid his criteria out as far as his expectations go and I feel pretty confident that he will do the same with Harris. If our staff thinks that Harris is a good fit for the program and won't be an issue in the locker room then I trust their judgement.
Not saying they do.I didn't think NCAA rules allowed that for an unofficial visit.
Lack of information leads people creating news without facts
I Juan him to figure out a way to get to ISU for a visit.It takes Juan to know Juan.
How long until someone comes in here and is offended by you guys?
Juan A.M.? Of course, I'll be asleep by then, so I may not see their reply.How long until someone comes in here and is offended by you guys?
Agree, I would love if ISU landed him. I have a relative from West Union that's an old school, no excuses hard *** and he got to know Harris a bit and really liked him - nice kid, head on straight despite having no stability or role models. He also thought Harris was a pretty smart kid that if he ever had a chance to get settled he'd be fine academically. No matter where he goes I hope it works out for him.Hope we get him. Football can be more than football when helping a kid like this if he has some talent.
A lot of people keep referring to him as a potential locker room problem. I probably missed something. What do we have to go off of other than he keeps changing his mind?

Here's a bit of info on Harris from an older article.
“I am not someone that has been fortunate enough to do some of the things that other guys have been able to do like going to visit other schools,” Harris said. “I grew up struggling all my life. I grew up sleeping on floors. I started my freshman year at Notre Dame College Prep (in Niles, Illinois). I stayed with my grandmother then and I had to sleep on the floor. It was tough so I ended up moving to Wisconsin the second semester of my freshman year and I stayed with my mother for a little bit but it was just a crowded living situation. We were okay financially but there were eight of us living in a two-bedroom apartment so it was pretty crowded. Around this time my father was getting out of prison and he got his own house and he got a room for me so I moved in with him (in Iowa). When I got there I had to sit out my sophomore year because of eligibility rules, and then things got tougher and tougher because my father was making decisions that he shouldn’t have been making. Things really got tough towards the end of my sophomore year so I was going to move back with my mother but if I did that I was going to be ineligible so ended up staying with my head coach my junior year. Things were going good with my coach but I just felt I needed to be with my mother, especially after I lost my father. He was shot in Chicago this past November and with me losing my father I thought it was best if I moved back in with my mother. So I ended up going back to Janesville, Wisconsin to be with my mom, and now she is doing better financially and we are going to move into a bigger house.
My freshman and sophomore year I struggled with my grades and that is why a lot of schools did not offer me,” he said. “But right now my grades are up as I have a 2.9 core GPA and a 3.2 cumulative GPA and I scored a 19 on the ACT so I am better now academically. I have also improved my conditioning. I dropped a bunch of weight. I was up to around 420 and now I’m down to 365 so I was able to show a lot of discipline and character.”
