Cavanaugh said that often depends on injuries and other factors, and then went on to say that Harrison will be given the opportunity to play early. How fast he learns the system, etc. Cavanaugh said one of the defensive backs also could emerge. But he indicated that Wilford, for now, is seen as an offensive player because of his height and ability to run. Stinespring said that Wilford and Keith Willis look like tight ends.

He cited Willis' great hand-eye coordination from playing basketball. Two coaches said that Ohio State tried to get in on Wilford at Fork Union, but that he stood by his early decision. Out of the top 11 state players for 1998 and top 11 for 1999, Beamer said the Hokies signed 11 of that pool of 22. But Davis also saw he had three tailbacks to beat out at VT, as opposed to being first in depth on his first day at UNC, where he signed. Cavanaugh suggested not to just be swayed by the rankings, and that coaches have their evaluations of the talent.
