steady, physical Spartan leader with rare durability
Darien Harris was a dependable, high-IQ linebacker for Michigan State, and in the 2015 season he ranked second on the team with 82 tackles and added 7.0 tackles for loss while starting every game at star linebacker. He stood out for his toughness, leadership, and consistency—he was a co-captain on the Spartans’ 2015 Big Ten championship team and played in 54 career games, tied for the most by any Spartan in a four-year span. If you value a rugged, assignment-sound defender who sets the tone, Harris fits.
