I just heard about Dick's death. I was sports information director at VMI when he was defensive coordinator for Bob Thalman.

Cell phone - 540-570-0274.

Wow! What a great man who has left a great legacy! I remember Coach Harmison fondly as a no-nonsense, handle business gentleman throughout my high school years. I'm thankful for his life and the impression he made on me to be a gentle giant in the lives of young people. Rest well, Coach! You've certainly earned it.
