C Nick Harris (Washington) Senior Bowl Interview

Nick Harris

Center / Washington

 

Ed Hunt:  How did it feel out there at the Senior Bowl practice?

Nick Harris:  Good!  Just a good day of practice.  Definitely had a lot of good team reps.  We competed and it was a good day.

Ed Hunt:  Who did you go up against in the one on one’s?

Nick Harris:  I’m not positive.  I think Neville Gallimore.  Davon Hamilton.

Ed Hunt:  Do you see yourself as a guard or a center at the next level?

Nick Harris:  I’m definitely capable.  I can play both.  I played two years at guard, two years at center, so definitely capable of playing both.

Ed Hunt:  Can you tell me about Trey Adams, left tackle for you guys?

Nick Harris:  What about him?

Ed Hunt:  Just his personality, his injury situation, if you could give me some insight?

Nick Harris:  I don’t really want to speak on his injury situation.  All that I know is that he handled it like he should.  I was his roommate for two and a half years; so, I’ve been through it all with him.  He’s strong as hell, he’s tough as hell.  I mean, he was mature about his injury, he came back better than ever.  He’s one hell of a guy to be around.  One hell of a player and I’m proud to call him one of my good friends.

Ed Hunt:  Would you say this year was a little bit of a disappointment not from an individual standpoint, but from a team standpoint for the Washington Huskies?

Nick Harris:  I mean obviously, especially from the past years that we have had so good, but you know it is what it is.  Football is a game of winning and losing.  I obviously hate losing, but for some point we didn’t win as much games as we did.  I think that we did come out with a winning record.  We won our last game, so we sent off Coach Pete right.  That something I’m definitely proud of.

Ed Hunt:  Has your agent talked to you about what round you are probably going to go in?

Nick Harris:  I’m mean I’m not really worried about that.  I am just trying to put myself in the best position to be drafted, so I don’t really hang my hat on that.  I will be blessed to take any opportunity to show what I can do.

Ed Hunt:  What are your biggest strengths?

Nick Harris:  I think my intelligence.  I’m a football geek.  I love football.  I watch hours of film. My athleticism for the position, I move pretty well as a center, and just my toughness and my competitive edge.  You know, I don’t like losing.  I will always come back and compete and will not shy away from any competition.  I think those are my best attributes.

Ed Hunt:  At the next level, are you a center and a guard?

Nick Harris:  I’m wherever they want me to play whether its guard, whether its center.  Wherever they want me to play, I’ll play, so it is what it is.

Ed Hunt:  Where are you training for the NFL Draft?

Nick Harris:  Orange County, California.
