The countdown to kickoff is within two weeks remaining. After profiling the underrated yet overly reliable Chris McGaha yesterday, today the spotlight turns to one of the key members of arguably the best Sun Devil team in history with running back Darryl Harris.

While he was born in Mississippi, Harris grew up in California. He became a high school legend, rushing for 2,404 yards in one season and leading his high school to their first ever state title. That drew the attention of head coach Darryl Rogers, who brought Harris in at the start of the 1984 season.
