Harris returns to BGSU with new appreciation for 'perfect storm'

BOWLING GREEN — It took until he was in his 30s for Josh Harris to develop an appreciation for his tenure at Bowling Green.

Time and place always matters — especially for a quarterback — and one would be hard-pressed to come up with a better scenario than the one in which Harris played.

The Falcons made a coaching change after Harris’ first season at BGSU, in 2000, at which point Harris said the Falcons were not bad players. They were a bad program.

But they desperately wanted to win, almost as much as a hyper-intense Notre Dame wide receivers coach named Urban Meyer, whom the school hired to be the head coach.
