I believe his father, Harry Sr., is Holy Cross' all time leading tackler. He was a 4 yr starter at LB, playing on some great HC teams in '82 and '83. He also played in the USFL and for the Cowboys back in '87.

You are correct. Harry Sr. played at Holy Cross and then with the Cowboys and USFL. Very good guy.
