Background

Early life

Harsh played high school football at Scottsbluff High School in Nebraska where he was a quarterback, linebacker, and punter. During his senior season, he rushed for over 2,000 yards and 35 touchdowns and threw for 874 yards and 11 more touchdowns. On the defensive side of the ball he accrued 66 tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss, 3 sacks, one interception, 4 forced fumbles, and 8 quarterback hurries. He also averaged 42 yards per punt including a 79 yard punt in the state championship.

On January 26, 2020, Harsh announced his decision to accept an offer to play college football at Wyoming as a preferred walk-on. Harsh chose Wyoming over a walk-on offer from Nebraska and scholarship offers from Division II schools Nebraska–Kearney and Chadron State.

Wyoming

As a true freshman at Wyoming, Harsh did not appear in any games. He was awarded a scholarship ahead of the 2021 season. In 2021, he appeared in every game, playing mostly on special teams. He sat out the entire 2022 season due to a knee injury before appearing in 12 games, and starting in 8, during the 2023 season. During his final season for the Cowboys, Harsh missed four games due to injury. He finished the season with 40 tackles, 9 tackles for loss, and 1.5 sacks and earned All-Mountain West Honorable Mention recognition.

On March 14, 2025, Harsh announced that he would enter the transfer portal.
