Personal: Football Career

“They say big things sometimes come in small packages. Well, when that package includes electrifying quickness, jaw-dropping elusiveness and pure speed, you call it Dawon Harvey! He is one of the most explosive, multidimensional players that I have ever seen. When he-could-go-all-the-way, he did just that and consistently made big plays as a running back, receiver, kick and punt returner.” -- Coach Lee Owens
