Jerry Harris was an All-American defensive back for the Mocs from 1961-64.  He was primarily a halfback for his first three years at UTC but moved over to the defensive side of the ball as a senior.

Harris was captain of the 1964 team that posted a school-record four shutouts on the way to a 7-3 season.  He had an interception in the Mocs’ narrow 10-6 loss at Tennessee that season.  He was one of two safeties named to the 1964 Associated Press Little All-American team.
