    this should not sit well with Beaver fans in here... being how they get really up in arms when I referred to some in the fan base as little brothers.


    All I know is he better backup locker room material.

    Cliff likes to run his mouth. The question is this. Will OS be able to do anything about it?

    Is he really overrated, though? The guy doesn't even start outside of an injury.

    The kid leads the Pac-10 in passes defended, interceptions, Punt Ret yards/gm, and PR touchdowns. I don't think he is overrated. Inconsistent sometimes, yes.

    This is Civil War week. This shit happens every year, trash talk between the two teams before CW isn't new.

    Cliff Harris needs to learn and not fall for the double move. This was the first game any team really used it on us. Foles would fake the short route with a pump fake, Harris would jump, then Criner would take off.

    He's by far our best corner, as far as talent is concerned, but needs to mature and learn the position a little more. He's got great speed, fluid hip movement, comes out of his break well, and I've seen him make great open field tackles.

    Also has a high vertical as evidenced by this video.

    Needs to time his jump better as I specifically remember him jumping too early and barely missing the ball that went for a completed pass.

    He takes risks, sometimes they hurt, sometimes they come out big.

    What's wrong with what he said?

    He's a confident player who is young and exciting. He has fun on the field and in my opinion, called it like he sees it.

    Harris is a sweet cover guy. As far as run stopper, he seems to make the most of his frame, but often resorts to ankle-diving.

    Unfortunately we don't have James Rodgers. I think James would burn Cliff Harris, but he doesn't have to worry about him. Markus Wheaton doesn't have enough experience to burn Harris yet.

    Cliff Harris = Asante Samuel
