According to Matt Miller's scouting notebook.
"—Missouri pass-rusher Charles Harriscame into the season with serious hype as a first-rounder, but one scout I spoke to who recently traveled through the school says he’s disappointed by new defensive coordinator DeMontie Cross’ scheme. The scout said, “Harris isn’t even asked to fire off anymore. He’s playing patty-cake with tackles trying to occupy gaps.”
If Harris’ numbers are down this year, it seems like scouts will assign the blame to the scheme and not the player."
