Byrnes High School’s football program has produced some of the Palmetto State’s top players for years. Since 1999, more than 20 players from the school located in Duncan, S.C., have gone on to play for Power Five programs.
Clemson and South Carolina have each tapped into the talent at the in-state powerhouse. In 2007, Clemson signed former Byrnes standouts Willy Korn, Xavier Dye, Stanley Hunter and Chad Diehl. More recently, South Carolina inked Marcus Lattimore (2010), Nick Jones (2010) and Chavis Dawkins (2016).
The latest emerging power conference prospect from Byrnes looks to be rising sophomore running back Rahjai Harris.
