Major's moment

Major Harris is a Hall of Famer.

I've known it for years, but now the College Football Hall of Fame is recognizing one of the game's greatest quarterbacks. He was ahead of his time. He was an option QB with an NFL arm. Unfortunately for him the NFL execs didn't respect his talent in 1990.

After leaving West Virginia University a year early, a decision he has admitted was a mistake, Major wasn't taken until the 12th round by the Raiders. He didn't stick and went to the CFL. He didn't do much there either.

If Major were playing today he'd be taken on Day 1 of the NFL Draft. If Major had stuck around for his senior year I believe the crowd at Mountaineer Field would still be giving him a standing ovation on Senior Day. We loved him that much.
