Damien Harris' mom jokes about possible transfer from Alabama

Marvin Gentry-USA TODAY Sports

Damien Harris' mother Lynn decided to have a little fun with the Alabama fan base on Tuesday morning, posting on Facebook that her son was leaving the Crimson Tide program to return home and play for Eastern Kentucky.

The joke didn't last long however, as she immediately deleted the post, and then tried to calm everyone down and let them in on it.

Harris was a highly-touted recruit coming out of high school, ranking as the second-best running back in the country. With Derrick Henry in the NFL next season, Harris should be able to find more carries in the backfield for the 2016 campaign.
