of his start last year, Harp should be one of the greatest Kansas guards
of all time. As a sophomore he was one of the finest defensive guards

in the country and his shooting won him the nickname of "Deadeye Dick".
Awarded a place on the second all-conference team last year. Big and
fast, he is the ideal guard. Always plays at a terrific pace.
