Harris chosen as finalist for Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award



TYLER, Texas —
UTSA senior Frank Harris has been named a finalist for the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award.



Harris joins Max Duggan (TCU), Bijan Robinson (Texas) and Deuce Vaughn (Kansas State) on the finalist list and his selection gives UTSA one in each of the last three years, as Sincere McCormick was a finalist in 2020-21.



The winner will be announced at the award banquet on Jan. 11, 2023, in Tyler. All finalists will be invited to the event and the emcee is Brian Jones, college football studio analyst for CBS Sports and CBS Sports Network.



This honor comes one week after Harris was named Conference USA Most Valuable Player and first-team all-conference at quarterback.



Harris has completed 305 of 429 passes for 3,865 yards, 31 touchdowns and a .711 completion percentage, and he also has rushed for 588 yards — the most by a QB in a season — and nine TDs on 120 carries. The senior from Schertz Clemens High School owns seven 300-yard passing performances this fall — also a UTSA record — and set the single-game mark with 414 in the win at Middle Tennessee.



A four-time C-USA Offensive Player of the Week honoree this season, he ranks fourth nationally with a league-leading 342.5 yards of total offense per game. He was named 2022 Ryan C-USA Championship Game MVP after completing 32 of 37 passes for 341 yards and four touchdowns and rushing for 49 yards and a TD to lead the Roadrunners to their second straight C-USA Championship with a 48-27 win over North Texas on Dec. 2.



The Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award, announced in 2012 by the Tyler Chamber and SPORTyler, recognizes the top offensive player in Division I football who also exhibits the enduring characteristics that define Earl Campbell: integrity, performance, teamwork, sportsmanship, drive, community, and tenacity; specifically, tenacity to persist and determination to overcome adversity and injury in pursuit of reaching goals.



In addition, the nominee must meet one or more of the following criteria: born in Texas and/or graduated from a Texas High School and/or played at a Texas-based junior college or four-year Division 1 Texas college.
