Harris is just a freshman from Nashville,TN.
Eriste redshirted last season for the Pioneers after starting his college career at Hiwassee College.
Eriste bounced around in high school from New York, Ohio, Kentucky to Florida. "Tim is a mismatch type of player on floor," said JucoJunction Publisher Bret Swanson.
Eriste will have three semesters to play after leaving Volunteer State Community College this spring.
Eriste is currently averaging 14.7 points and 4.2 rebounds per game this season for the 6-11 Patriots. Eriste is currently ranked No. 148 in the JucoJunction Top 150 this year.
Harris is the father of 5 year old daughter and just started classes this past fall.
"Harris is a very active left handed power forward who plays extremely hard on both ends of the floor," said Swanson.
Harris is currently averaging 18.7 points, 11.5 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game this season for the Patriots.
