The Cliff Harris Suspension, and Why It's the Right Decision
BREAKING NEWS: THREE DUCKS KILLED IN CAR ACCIDENT is not a headline any Duck fan wants to see, on this site or anywhere else. But that could have blown up Twitter Monday morning had Cliff Harris' late-night antics gone differently. It was dark and it was late, and at the speed the car was traveling, a crash would have been catastrophic. Let's first be thankful that nothing truly serious happened. Then we can move on to the real issue: Cliff Harris' behavior is not deserving of a place on the Oregon football team, and until he straightens himself out, he should stay suspended.
Ordinarily I don't consider a moving violation to be reflective of a person's character. Everyone has bent the rules of the road at one time or another. But this is not an ordinary incident, nor is it an isolated one. Harris drove someone else's car 118 mph, in the middle of the night, on a poorly-lit highway, without a valid license, and with two of his teammates in the backseat. Is it as egregious as sexual assault or driving drunk? No. But it demonstrates a lack of judgment, especially considering his prior history, and Chip Kelly has made it abundantly clear that teaching good life habits is part of his job description.
Cliff Harris started 2010 fall practices down on the depth chart, despite his immense physical gifts, because of the same maturity concerns. This latest incident, taken by itself, is not grounds for suspension. But this misstep can be seen as the tipping point for Harris' career.
I interpret Chip Kelly saying "he is suspended indefinitely" to mean "he needs to get his head out of his ass and start acting like an adult." It has nothing to do with the severity of the incident. It is simply a way to say, "you will not play football for this team until you get your act together." LeGarrette Blount made it back. Jeremiah Masoli did not. Cliff Harris' destiny as an Oregon Duck is to be determined in the coming months.

The backstory on Harris' trip
I received this morning but have waited for permission to post it from my source, which I received a short time ago.
This is from a very reliable source inside the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles re Harris;
He actually isn’t a punk. He is a good kid. What happened is, he was at the Rose Parade and some gang bangers killed a guy. He did the right thing and
cooperated with the police and they arrested the murderers. As a result
of his cooperation, the gang bangers put a hit on him and his teammates. The
hit is credible and they truly fear for their lives. As a result, he shot
down I-5 at 118 mph back to Oregon and decided to go there to get away from the threat. That is why he was crying when he was pulled over. He was the kid in the
car that was actively getting other players out of danger. He did
us a tremendous favor by having two teammates as passengers and getting them back to Eugene and forestalling his reckless speeding until after he had gotten out of a 30 mph zone.
The kid is heartbroken.

But corner is one of our deeper positions and Barner isn’t that much of a step back on kick returns.

Kiko has far more important things to worry about over the summer.
Like staying away from the bottle and dealing with whatever demons send him to that place. I’d love to see him come back healthy in body and mind, but I’d rather he take a whole season to get his head straight than “do the minimum” to get back on the field.

Yeah, but my guess is Chip will see straight through Kiko's bullshit....
if that is indeed what it is. I don’t see Chip looking the other way and slyly sneaking Kiko a “get out of jail free” pass to get onto the field in Dallas. I think if he plays he will have earned it. I’m just hoping he earns it.
That said, I don’t think we are in disagreance on this point. Or at least, I don’t disagree with you that Kiko fixing his problem is the number one issue here.
I think if Chip has shown one thing it is that he knows what the hell he is doing. I also think, and have been saying this, that there is a reason we haven’t heard a peep about Kiko since the court thing happened. I hope we don’t hear his name until the announcers start talking about him in warm-ups in Dallas.

Out of line..?
So on Twitter someone made a comment, which I think was an exxageration, that he would not renew his season tickets (of 27 years) if Cliff was on the field vs. LSU. While I don’t think he was serious, that sounds extreme, I agreed with his point that Cliff should be suspended.
I got slammed by a few Duck fans and it made me really curious…are these guys speaking for the majority of Oregon fans? Has the price of winning really gotten to the point that the guys on this team are above the law and shouldn’t be punished? Their rationale was that Cliff’s penalties are his fines and shouldn’t be suspended from the team. I found it pretty alarming…they sounded like the typical SEC fans. What is the general feeling out there?
My take on the situation:
1) Those guys are out there.
2) There’s more of them out there than there used to be.
3) They constitute a vocal minority rather than a majority.

Ah, the good ol' silent majority.
Yes, of course.
I do agree with your points though. The ones likely to be arguing in that manner will be the most vocal.
Self anointed President of the Kenjon Barner fan club.
Has the price of winning really gotten to the point that the guys on this team are above the law and shouldn’t be punished?
This sentence directly contradicts your next sentence. No one on our team is above the law (and very few if any Duck fans would argue that). Any offending player should be prosecuted under the law as any other citizen would be. I don’t think any Duck fan disputes this. I mean, we’re not huskies a decade ago. Cliff (and all players) should be accountable for their actions.
The big question becomes, does this accountability extend onto the football field, and when should Chip Kelly step in? I argued yesterday that traffic violations shouldn’t play a significant role in that decision, and I felt that he should be punished, but not suspended for his actions. It seems like there was a lot of other issues going on, which played a part in his suspension.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
Maybe I mispoke?
But above the law in how the school reacts. If you break the law, you are punished accordingly by the law. But do fans see that as the only punishment needed? Do they feel that as long as Oregon is getting W’s what happens off the field is inconsequential? Are they ok with having a team full of punks as long as he’s great on the field? One of the biggest critiques of the SEC is how they react (or don’t react) to players actions off the field because it will hurt their Won-Loss record.
It entirely depends what laws the players break.
The main problem I have is how this argument is being framed. It’s either “no punishment is needed” and “off the field is inconsequential,” or you get a “team full of punks.” Like all of life, there are massive areas of gray, and each situation needs to be dealt with on its own.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog

I don’t know anything more about him than what I see on the field. I’ve heard he’s a good kid, tried to get out of a bad situation in LA…but I am making up a hypothetical point.

Gotta respect Barner for his response to this
From Oregonlive - All these ppl talking bad about cliff r funny cuz the minute he scores a TD yall will be the 1st to say he’s greatest guy #fareweatherfans (1st post on the subject, last night)
- A lot of ppl hold us on such high pedestal tht u forget we r human we make mistakes he didn’t murder,rob,or anything like tht get over it
- End of the day I support n I’m there for him that’s the bottom line he will do what needs to b done 2 get bak given the opportunity
- this gonna be my last tweet of the night no one said not to hold him accountable he knows as well as everyone else that he was (Said in response to someone’s statement)
- wrong, never said give em a pass leave it 2 the team n coach Kelly if me supportin him is not holdin him accountable then so be it (again in response)
- cliff is like my lil brother yeah I’m pissed but I will never stop supporting him that’s what family does bro (again in response last night)
- No other coach in America has handled off the field issues better than coach K. I will leave to him and so should u!!! God bless (1st tweet he sent this morning)
I think it was yesterday that it was said that players
are not distracted by other players off field shenanigans. I think that it is fair to say that Barner was distracted. Pretty sure Cliff’s CB backups were as well, wondering what their position would opening day. Glad that Chip made it clear that Cliff can earn his way back but that LSU is out no matter what, it will let people concentrate and prepare effectively
I agree whole heartedly with what chip did.
I think that Cliff will be back on the field in week two. The isolated incident in itself is not what worries me the most, it’s that it’s a repeat incident. It’s that he endangered not only his life but the lives of three others and everyone else who was driving on that road that night.
According to Oregon State Police, human reaction time is 1.5 feet per second. Which means at 118 miles per hour, it would’ve taken Harris 260 feet to react to any obstacle in his way. But at night it’s even worse, the reaction rate is about 2.5 feet per second.
That’s nearly a Football field before he even reacted to a problem and a lot farther to come to a complete stop. At night on an unlit road way you over drive your headlights at or around 55 miles per hour. If ANYTHING had happened, there is no way he would have been able to react on time.
I don’t know if the suspension will help Cliff wakeup and realize that rules arn’t there to spite him but to make sure he and the people around him are safe. Hopefully he’ll put more weight into his decisions in the future.

A reaction time of 1.5 feet/second doesn’t make any sense to me. Probably just 1.5 (or 2.5) seconds, no?
Probably meant "feet seconds" rather than "feet per second."

by BigGreenWreckingMachine on Jun 16, 2011 12:14 PM PDT up reply actions
I don't think so,
“feet” has no place in reaction time. It works if you assume they meant 1.5 seconds:
1.5seconds * 173 feet/second = 260 feet
If you were to use feet*second you would get 260 square feet. If you were to use feet/second, you would get 260 (feet^2) / (seconds^2). Neither make sense in context.

Still makes sense.
Reaction time expressed as distance. He did say 1.5 seconds, 118mph is 173fps, ergo it would take on average 260 feet before a reaction is registered.
BTW we think 118mph/173fps is fast. Apollo spacecraft (and the men inside them) hit the atmosphere at ~36,300fps/24,000mph.

The stats sound scary, but...
At 65 mph (the speed limit) it still would have taken him half of a football field (238.3 feet), at night, just to react. This is roughly the equivalent of 108 mph during the day.

Is my math wrong?
1.5 seconds to react during day
--
108 mph / 60 = 1.8 miles per minute
1.8 mpM * 5280 = 9504 feet per minute
9504 fpm / 60 = 158.4 feet per second
158.4 fps * 1.5 = 237.6 feet to react at 108 mph because of the established 1.5 second daylight hours reaction time.
Where did I mess up?

by MarineCorpsDuck on Jun 16, 2011 5:53 PM PDT via mobile up reply actions
65 mph at night...
65 mph / 60 = 1.0833 miles per minute
1.0833 * 5280 = 5720 feet per minute
5720 fpm / 60 = 95.33 feet per second
95.33 * 2.5 = 238.3 feet to react at 65 mph because of the established 2.5 second night time hours reaction time.
Therefore, in terms of reaction time only, 108 mph during the day is slightly safer than 65 mph at night.

So does this mean that Cliff will be on the scout team for the week or so of LSU-focused practices leading up to the game?
It seems like that would be the case. If it is, this could almost be a good thing. Our young receivers will get to practice trying to get open against one of the best cover corners in the nation.
How do you like that for seeing the world through green glasses?
