The 177 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 6: coach manager ever come to you and say, would you 178 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 6: like to try a pass or something, a flank or 179 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 6: reverse come in the game, sneak in the game or something. 180 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 7: I never wrote. I thought I had I had my load. 181 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 7: I was carrying that I was that I could I 182 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 7: could handle. 183 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, you were. 184 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: Pretty busy back there at the safety position. 185 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 6: But anyway, you were likely recruited coming out of high school. 186 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: Well maybe only was coming out of high school. It 187 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 1: was that l. 188 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 7: Like, well, you know, my mother went to Henderson State 189 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 7: or Methodist College, and my dad went to Washington Baptist College, 190 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 7: and they're in the same town. Arkadelphia, Arkansas, and they 191 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 7: stopped that. They'd play each other at the end of 192 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 7: the year and the town would riot. They stopped playing it. 193 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 7: They'd burn cars, they they stopped playing it. 194 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 3: For ten years. 195 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 7: I thought of that because of that, and so now 196 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 7: it's they control it more. I mean, it's better control. 197 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 7: But you know, it was the Methodist against the Baptists. 198 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 7: There was a lot of spiritual things going on, but 199 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 7: it was but that's a big game every every year. 200 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 6: So it was a big deal between mom and dad 201 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 6: when you picked Washington. 202 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 3: No, not really, my dad was. My dad was. 203 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 7: My mom was okay, you know with it, because she 204 00:10:58,880 --> 00:10:59,839 Speaker 7: was a nice lady. 205 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: So they recruited you as of what dB or soll. 206 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, they recruited me is they didn't know where they 207 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 7: were going to play me. They recruited me as a quarterback, 208 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 7: and I tried it at quarterback. We had a senior 209 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 7: that was a great quarterback, and then they drafted or 210 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 7: signed uh to uh They had a quarterback that was 211 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 7: from Fort Smith, which is a big city, and he 212 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 7: ended up and I ended up playing defensive back and 213 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 7: then playing it well and started I was the only 214 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 7: freshman starter at defensive back I mean only freshman starter 215 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 7: on defense, but this guy from Fort Smith because it's 216 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,479 Speaker 7: a big city, and he was not a great quarterback, 217 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 7: and I think I could have beaten him out, but 218 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 7: but I stuck. 219 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 3: With defensive back. And it's worked out, okay for me? 220 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: Right on it certainly, it certainly has. 221 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 6: And you know, we wanted to talk a little bit 222 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 6: more about going to UHHA and how that experience was 223 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 6: for you.

Cliff Harris and free agent buddy from the 565 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 6: Dallas Cowboys and a member of the Pro Football Hall 566 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 6: of Fame the class of twenty twenty. And he's a 567 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 6: Hall of Famer now, but came into the NFL as 568 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 6: an undrafted free agent and one of the top picks 569 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 6: overall for the Cowboys as a free agent back in 570 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 6: the day, Cliff playing for Tom Landry. 571 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, What was that experience like for you? 572 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 6: Because I experienced him on the offensive side and I 573 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 6: thought he was an offensive genius from that point of view. 574 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 6: You experienced him from the defensive side. What are your 575 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 6: thoughts about coach Landry. 576 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 7: Well, I think he was a genius too. And thank 577 00:29:54,880 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 7: goodness that I had his system, his defense for me 578 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 7: to play because I fit that perfectly. Gave me the 579 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 7: opportunity to not play back deep like a Paul Krauss 580 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 7: or something. It gave me an opportunity because the structure 581 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 7: of the defense allowed me to attack the run at 582 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 7: times in certain defenses. 583 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 3: So it allowed me and. 584 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 7: It allowed me to knock the heck out of receivers 585 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 7: at times as well. But we had, but Drew, we 586 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 7: had such a great system we had when you had 587 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 7: studied the games an upcoming opponent, we would have six 588 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 7: of their games broken down in our computerized print out, 589 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 7: six of their games broken down to first and ten, second, six, 590 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 7: six and six plus third and five to fifteen, and 591 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 7: all the routes broken down, all the formations broken down, 592 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 7: and I'd draw them up. 593 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 3: And I wish I had one of my books I 594 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 3: could show you this thing. 595 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 7: But it gave you an advantage because Coach Landry always 596 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:07,959 Speaker 7: was anticipation beats reaction. So the anticipation comes from studying 597 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 7: and preparing, and so you can anticipate and have that 598 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 7: little fraction of a second more that you do than 599 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 7: just reacting to it. And so anticipation is something I 600 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 7: live with in my life. So it's something that you 601 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 7: can live your whole life in in anticipating life and 602 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 7: what people are going to do and everything else. 603 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 6: So if you can have if you anticipate and be 604 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 6: prepared through the anticipation, you can deal with the reaction. 605 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 7: Yes, quicker, quicker quicker, because you're going to have it 606 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 7: already in your head that you anticipate that they're going 607 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 7: to do an en route like you used to do it, 608 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 7: like an en route or a post or something, and 609 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 7: you know, oh, this is a red formation. 610 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 3: They're putting the guy in motion. 611 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, So they've run this seventeen times in three 612 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 7: fourteen of the those times they rant it with a 613 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 7: white guy. 614 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 3: Coming into the inside. 615 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 7: And I blew it in red shark, and I would 616 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 7: put the colors blue or red and put all different 617 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 7: colors on there to show what they were, the main 618 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 7: route runner and the secondary route runner, and you'd see 619 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 7: the whole pattern, but you'd see the main one, and 620 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 7: you know from a red formation on second and six 621 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 7: second and. 622 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 1: Six yards seven yard, you know what they un. 623 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 3: You're going to run that. They run that over and 624 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 3: over and over. 625 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 7: They rented against Buffalo, they ranted against Chicago, they ran 626 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 7: it against this one. So you know they're going to 627 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 7: run against you, and they run it against the last 628 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 7: time they played you. 629 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: So it's see something like that is so. 630 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 6: Misunderstood or underrated or under the importance of that and 631 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 6: being successful, you know, on defense and having that kind 632 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 6: of anticipation and. 633 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 7: You know, to have all your guys having that too. 634 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 7: And Charlie Waters was such a great guy, and because 635 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 7: he was the strong safety from me and he and 636 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 7: I knew how to work that system and knew that 637 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 7: we knew what was going to happen, and so we 638 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:09,479 Speaker 7: anticipated and so we reacted faster. And he was a 639 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 7: great safety partner with me and helped me, I mean, 640 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 7: become the player that I was. 641 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 3: I really did. 642 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 6: And you know what you were.
