He already has the Oregon single-season record for punt return touchdowns (three) and quite possibly the most famous introductory speech in Duck history, when as a true freshman, he got up in front of his teammates and said these words:
"My name is Cliff Harris, and I'm here to lock (stuff) down.''
He said he started to plan what he would say, something maybe a little more "conformist,'' but that it felt out of character. So he just let loose.
"That's the type of dude I am,'' Harris said, recalling those words his teammates' reaction. "They started laughing about it. Who's this little skinny kid talking like this? I try to keep it light, fun - but at the same time, a confidence boost. I try to make guys have confidence in themselves. If you don't believe in yourself, then everybody around you can't believe in you.''
