This offseason, Stanford defensive lineman Harrison Phillips watched 2014 game tapes of his overmatched true freshman self.
"It was humiliating watching that film," Phillips said.
Phillips was undersized for the nose tackle position to begin with -- he was an emergency substitute for 305-pound senior David Parry -- but he was even lighter after games, when the exertion associated with being physically beaten dragged him down to 248 pounds.
