per the Daily:
Although Harris is a devoted coach, his time with Howard Pulley is still just volunteer work.
Harris received his undergraduate degree in kinesiology and earned his master’s degree in applied kinesiology at the University of Minnesota.
He decided to teach physical education for one of the same reasons he coaches: he loves helping kids.
He worked in the Osseo and then Robbinsdale school districts for about 10 years before taking an administrative role in the Burnsville district. He’s now an administrator at Perpich Arts High School in Golden Valley, Minn.
With many AAU tournaments taking place on weekends in the spring, Harris said he has to take a lot of personal days from work. He said it’s difficult to balance his coaching and his professional life, but he enjoys both.
“It’s a lot of work,” he said. “It’s a lot of focus. But again, as far as helping kids, it works out pretty good.”
