This play is DJ Shark's (pronunciation) first pass & TD and he gets to flash his superior speed to shake off KTII on a perfect strike that hits him in full stride. Harris throws from the 32 and DJ hauls it in on the 12 so you have the ball traveling ~56 yds in just over 2 seconds or in the range of 52-56 mph which is NFL speed for a long throw. The record is 59-60 mph for shorter passes. It would be really interesting to know how many WR's were lined up, etc., as the defense looked spread out. Miles had to jump back 5 yds, but he really got to see and hear that pass whistle down the wire.

Harris has a cannon. He has a quick release, is a strong, fast runner, has good balance, and makes quick reads and accurate throws on the run - all qualities of a good dual threat QB. That means more explosive offensive passing plays utilizing 3+WR sets, which will spread the defense and open up the run game in a modern, balanced, attack. Miles has even mentioned the offense is functioning better using more pace...there is certainly a lot of untapped tactical potential there.

Slowing down the original video, 1 second to look left, 1 second to run left, 1 second to spin and reverse back, 1 second to stop, locate a receiver, 1/2 sec to set up and fire a 56 yd pass.

DJ is the same size and wt as KTII, 6'2" 185, but he has been timed at 4.4 and KT 4.57. There is a lot of receiver talent and speed and Tony Ball says he is focused on building their confidence. That play was a confidence builder for DJ and Harris.
