East 17th Street Ep. 22 — New IU basketball transfer forward Josh Harris joins

During his lone season with the North Florida Ospreys, Harris started all 30 games and averaged 13.4 points and 7.1 rebounds per game. He shot an impressive 55.7% from the field and 33.3% from beyond the arc, showcasing his versatility and efficiency.

Notably, Harris had several standout games, including a career-high 31 points against Queens University, marking the most points scored in a game in North Florida Division I history .

Why Indiana?

He expressed admiration for the genuine and family-oriented approach of Coach DeVries and his staff, noting that they had a comprehensive plan for his development. Harris was particularly drawn to the opportunity to play at a program with a rich basketball tradition and the potential to compete at a high level .

Fit with the Hoosiers

Harris’s skill set aligns well with Indiana’s needs. His ability to stretch the floor with his three-point shooting and his prowess on the boards will bolster the Hoosiers’ frontcourt depth.

With three years of eligibility remaining, Harris has the opportunity to develop and contribute significantly to the team’s success in the coming seasons .

Looking Ahead

As Coach DeVries continues to build his roster for the 2025-26 season, Harris’s addition brings both talent and depth to the Hoosiers. His freshman experience and skill set make him a valuable asset as Indiana aims to return to national prominence in college basketball. Fans can look forward to seeing Harris’s contributions on the court as he embarks on this new chapter with the Hoosiers.
