Todd Harrelson discusses position move

Posted Aug 18, 2011
Todd Harrelson was a star cornerback during his days as a high school player at Chesapeake (Va.)'s Oscar Smith High, and while he knows it's going to be much faster playing at the college level, he's confident he can get up to speed quickly. "Of course in college it's probably a little faster than when I was playing corner in high school, but it's really not that much of a difference. I've just got to learn everything in the playbook, and I should be okay," he said. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
