the former walk-on QB whose coaching track record keeps paying dividends
Craig Harmon isn’t a current Northern Illinois player, but as a Huskies-connected quarterback coach and former NIU walk-on, his value comes from toughness, adaptability, and development chops: NIU’s 2016 QBs had four different starters yet still produced 2,688 passing yards and 20 touchdowns, and the 2018 group added 2,175 yards and 15 TDs. His background suggests a coach who knows how to stabilize a room, teach around attrition, and squeeze production from chaos — a strong fit if your team wants a steady hand and a next-man-up mentality.
