QB guru sees a big similarity between UNC’s Mitch Trubisky, LSU transfer Brandon Harris

The private coach for Brandon Harris says the former LSU quarterback is excited about getting a fresh start at North Carolina and hopes to duplicate Mitch Trubisky’s one-year success story at Chapel Hill.

Harris announced two weeks ago he would enroll at UNC as a graduate transfer in the fall following a disappointing three-year stint for his home-state Tigers. Harris failed to hold his starting job and never completed more than 56 percent of his passes in a season.

Harris will become the Tar Heels’ most experienced candidate to replace Trubisky, who sat behind Marquise Williams for several seasons before starting last year.
