Kalani Simpson has a great profile of Matt Harding.
He was lightning, this kid. That's how we remember him. Matthew Harding was so fast at the snap he would race the ball back to the punter, and there were times you would swear it was a tie. There were times he hit the punter before the poor guy could even flip the laces -- Harding had no choice; it wasn't roughing. It was a sack. He was early, not late. He actually got there too fast to block the kick.
He was like lightning, this kid.
That's how we remember him.

Kalani's article was a "feel good" read. I enjoyed it.
