College Football's Diary of a Walk-On: Part Three

Despite the positives, the sanctions from the NCAA, including the current order of vacating victories, had to have taken a toll on the team. However, when pressed, Harris merely stated no comment. It was released that the members of the football program do not have enough information to comment on the subject at this time.

Harris is trying not to focus on what he cannot control, but what he can, which includes learning the plays and his routes. He feels at a great disadvantage coming in without prior experience, and despite being a clean slate, the coaches don’t have time to train new personnel. Instead, it is up to Harris to sharpen the learning curve.

With the Spring game on tap for April 4, and then voluntary practice until August, Harris has his plans set. He knows he has to learn the plays and the routes to the point where thinking is no longer the reaction. He wants to get in, contribute, and get dirty with the rest of the team, and the only way is constant repetition.

It takes players years to develop that second nature of understanding, but for Harris Kaufman, the window is very narrow. The next few months could determine the entire football season. Stay with The Sportmeisters as we continue to follow Harris’s dream in the Diary of a Walk-On.
