The news couldn't come at a better time for UTEP as injuries and the situation with Josh McSwiggan have not been in the Miners favor early in the season.  Harris has practiced with the team, but has not appeared in a game this season.

UTEP and Washington State square off Sunday afternoon at 4:00 p.m. Mountain Time in Pullman, Washington.
