It's really tough, no matter who you are. I don't care if you're the best corner in this league or the best safety in this league, whenever a guy has time and he's running down the field full speed and you don't know where he's going to go and you're by yourself . . . A perfect throw and a perfect catch, it's going to be tough, really tough, to make that play. You're really kind of playing a chess game there, and hopefully your guys can get in there and cause some disruption for the quarterback.
More Quotes from Walt Harris:
That position, that's a challenge here at Stanford, to come up with legitimate runners that can make people miss, run people over and break long runs. We decided to give him a look and he did a representative job. I don't think you can say he's the only back who's going to play or even that he'll carry the ball most. He's earned the starting job because of his work ethic and responsiveness on the practice field.Walt Harris
He was a good athlete, and he made up for whatever speed he might have lacked by being a natural football player. He understood the game and knew how to make reads.
Walt Harris
He's got to do a better job of protecting himself so he doesn't take any more shots. I was watching to make sure he got up. Fortunately, he got up and did the job.
Walt Harris
I don't know if it's broken. Something is wrong with his hand. It was a big loss, he's a good football player and he's had the most practice time. We are a little more freewheeling with him.
Walt Harris
When we finally get to the game, I'll be looking forward to it. But right now, there are so many details that we need to take care of just to get on the plane and be able to have a good Friday study session that it's kind of overwhelming right now. I really haven't had the time to think that this is my first game at Stanford.
Walt Harris
He's practicing and we're doing everything we can to make sure he doesn't extend the injury. He threw a little in practice on Sunday, and hopefully he'll be ready.
