Untitled[edit]

This article shows a lot of biases.

Firstly, Harris' successful tenure at Pittsburgh isn't mentioned at all including him taking the Panthers to 5 straight bowl games and a Big East title.

Secondly, the comment about "worst coach in Stanford history" needs to be clarified. His winning% is the lowest in school history but he only coached two seasons.

Finally, the "criticisms" page really doesn't belong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.94.199.110 (talk) 02:40, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Walt Harris → Walt Harris (coach) – Per WP:2DABS, "Walt Harris" doesn't primarily refer to the coach. There are two Walt Harrises famous in American football: the coach and the cornerback, since the coach had been a head coach for Pittsburgh and Stanford from '97 to '06 and a coach in the college & pro ranks for nearly 35 years; the cornerback played for over 10 years and was a Pro Bowler.

Support - this should redirect to Walter Harris dablist. Shouldn't the lead also begin Walter Harris per WP:FULLNAME, can this be checked? In ictu oculi (talk) 04:45, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Stanford University lists his full name as "Walt Harris". Arbor to SJ (talk) 05:26, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt that's a birth-certificate/passport full name, folk in US usually have a middle name. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:03, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support thsi title should point to the disambiguation page -- 65.94.171.126 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 05:28, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support and redirect this title to Walter Harris, per IIO. bd2412 T 15:07, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
