The Philly Daily News is reporting that the Quakers have added recruit Xavier Harris, a six-foot-five, 210 pound power forward from nearby Constitution High School for the next year's men's basketball class. However, there's a big but involved.

Harris has committed, the Daily News says, but he must improve his SAT scores 30 points before he can make the move across the Schuylkill to Penn. He's currently waiting on his scores after taking the test last Saturday.

"Knowing how hard Penn is, people have been saying to me for a while why I'd want to pick them," Harris told the Daily News. "I'm honored by the fact that they wanted me and I'm working as hard as I can to make this happen."

His GPA is an impressive 3.7 at Constitution.

According to his Maxpreps profile, he averaged 22.9 points and 12.1 rebounds per game last year.

He had reportedly also received interest from Dartmouth. According to the Daily News, he'll be the first Philly public school product to come to play for Penn since 1980.
