Monday, April 30, 2012 at 12:15PM NORTHERN ILLINOIS' CHANDLER HARNISH
IS 37TH MR. IRRELEVANT
A quarterback from the nation's heartland reigned today as Mr. Irrelevant, the last player selected in the NFL draft in New York.
Chandler Harnish, who passed for 68 touchdowns and 8,944 yards in four seasons at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, will be feted in the annual Irrelevant Week celebration in Newport Beach, California, in June and honored with the Lowsman Trophy, emblematic of his irrelevance.
"I had heard of the Mr. Irrelevant award but not Irrelevant Week," said Harnish. "Everyone's heard of the award but no one thinks he's going to get it.
"Right now I'm in a little bit of shock and just so proud and happy. A big monkey is off my back (getting drafted) and Mr. Irrelevant is just a cherry on the cake."
Irrelevant week was founded by Paul Salata, a former NFL player and Hollywood actor, in 1976 for no reason, said Salata, "just to do something nice for someone."
Harnish actually was very relevant as he led the Northern Illinois Huskies to an 11-3 record in 2011, concluding with a 38-20 victory over Arkansas State in the GoDaddy.com Bowl game in Mobile, Alabama.
The 6-foot, 2-inch, 220-pounder from Bluffton, Indiana (about 1 ½ hours north of Indianapolis), also was the Mid-American Conference player of the year and guided the Huskies to a 7-1, first-place conference record. He completed 237 of 384 passes for 3,216 yards and 28 touchdowns, with only 6 interceptions. Harnish rushed for 11 touchdowns in 2011 and 24 for his career.
"He was my 11th-rated quarterback coming into the draft," said Mel Kiper, ESPN college draft honcho and guru.
Chandler says he likes sushi, chili cheese dogs with onions, and golf and never has been to California but was heard to say, "I'm going to Disneyland!"
Harnish was the second quarterback drafted by the Indianapolis Colts. Andrew Luck, a player from Stanford University, was another Colts quarterback draftee.
