The odyssey of Jay Harris, also known as "Jay DatBull," has taken another turn.

People may not remember Harris’ name, but they’ll likely remember his story. Harris originally signed with Michigan State in 2013, but the school reportedly took his scholarship away after an explicit rap video of his dropped on YouTube.

Harris has resurfaced on a football field again, this time at Division II Indiana University of Pennsylvania. Though he’s yet to play a snap of college football, IUP is the fifth program of Harris' career.

After leaving Michigan State, Harris spent time at ASA College in New York and East Coast Prep in Massachusetts, before resurfacing at Western Michigan.

Harris participated in spring football with the Broncos in 2014, but he didn’t return for the fall. He caught 48 passes for 698 yards and 12 touchdowns as a high school senior in 2012.
