“The program has to be viewed as more
than singular. It was based on the timing,
the success and the trajectory of the pro-
gram.”
Though no longer the head coach at
Trevecca, Harris says he has no plans of
leaving Music City.

“The timing wasn’t great, but I’m not just
going to pick up and leave because my
family is here and this is home.”

sure of what the future holds.
“I have no idea,” Harris said. “I’m go-

might be the end (of my coaching career)
for a temporary time, but if the right op-
