The On3 Consensus top athlete in the country this cycle recently sat down with GamecockCentral.com for a one-on-one interview on location at his high school.
“Coach Beamer was one of the first few to ever look at me when I was a freshman,” Harbor said during the conversation. “When he got the head coaching job at South Carolina (he) offered me to get me down to the school and just to show me great love when I was a three or four star. He’s still there, still showing the same recruitment, but just going even harder now since we’re getting closer to when I’m going to commit.”

“I’ll be at Gamecock Nation on September 16 through 18,” Harbor said.

Nyckoles Harbor Scouting Report from On3
Nyckoles Harbor is the rarest jumbo athlete we’ve seen as a recruit. He’s one of the nation’s top sprinters at around 6-foot-5, 225 pounds. Harbor could play as a pass rusher or big pass catcher at the college level. There are not many great comparisons given his physical dimensions and lack of polish as a pass catcher, but we’ve landed on former college wide receiver and NFL tight end Darren Waller, who ran 4.46 at the NFL Combine at 6-foot-6, 238 pounds.
