Major Impact: The Major Harris Story

Before Michael Vick, Donovan McNabb, and Patrick White, there was West Virginia's Major Harris! In 1988, in a nationally-televised game on CBS, he ran 26-yards for a touchdown on a busted play. On that day, the entire college world came to know the phenomenal athlete with the unusual name. From the gritty streets of Pittsburgh's Hill District to the Downtown Athletic Club in New York City, Major has climbed the pinnacle of college football's elite. Recently elected to the College Football Hall of Fame, this two-time Heisman Trophy finalist was the first Division I quarterback to ever run the ball for more than 2,000 yards and pass for more than 5,000 yards in his career. And although he failed to play a single snap in the National Football League, Major's pioneering style of play would change the game forever. This is the story of an athlete who left a Major Impact on the game!
