CJ Harris brings dual-threat QB polish and toughness to Louisiana Tech
Harris is a former Ohio and California quarterback who arrives at Louisiana Tech with proven dual-threat production, including 1,009 career passing yards, 272 rushing yards, and 8 total touchdowns across his college career, with his most recent 2024 season at Cal showing 184 passing yards on 61.3% completions in limited action.[5][7][11][12] What makes him interesting is not just the numbers but the feel: he has enough mobility to extend plays, has shown he can operate efficiently in short stints, and has already fought through a 2023 medical emergency that interrupted his season, which speaks to resilience and competitive grit.[3][11] For a team, he fits as a versatile, experienced depth piece whose upside comes from decision-making, movement, and maturity rather than raw arm-stats fireworks.[2][5][16]
