Will Harris will leave the Florida Gators after one season to coach at rival Miami, according to multiple reports.

UF’s secondary made significant improvement after just one season under Harris, getting eight more interceptions than in 2023.

Under Will Harris, the team’s defensive backs totaled 11 of the team’s 14 interceptions a season after Florida managed just 3 picks, tied with Temple for the fewest in college football.

Although his contract wasn't set to expire, Florida was reportedly working on extending Harris prior to his departure. In early February, head coach Billy Napier explained that contract extensions were being finalized. “For the most part, yes. I mean some of those deals are not done," he said on Feb. 5. "Hopefully we’ll get everybody back.”

According to 247Sports' Matt Zenitz, Florida football secondary coach Will Harris is expected to leave the Gators for the same position at Miami. Here's more:

The Hurricanes poached defensive backs coach Will Harris from rival Florida, filling out their defensive staff.

The Miami Hurricanes are preparing to have one of the best seasons in recent memory and they have to make sure their defense won't hold them back. They land Will Harris to ensure that they will be great on the defensive side of the ball.

It's been a really interesting week for the Florida Gators. They have been hot on the recruiting trail, but the news breaking on Thursday that secondary coach Will Harris was departing the Gators for Miami (FL) turned things upside down.
