Harrison's mother, Cecelia Harrison, also attended KU. He was involved in a car accident the June before he started at Kansas, and had nearly decided to give up competitive basketball until Jayhawk coaches invited him to walk-on tryouts. Harrison changed his number from 30 to 2 this season, and he becomes the first known Jayhawk to sport that jersey number.
