Daily News | Khari Reid’s ‘life-changing’ football commitment to Stanford believed to be a first for Philadelphia
Had you seen Khari Reid play youth football, you might be surprised to see him now or to hear where he’s heading.
In fact, Reid has grown to love contact. Stanford likely wouldn’t have offered him a scholarship otherwise.“Any time I can make a tackle or do anything physical any time on the field, there’s never any hesitation,” Reid said. “I’m always a go-getter. If I see you, I’m going to get you.” “To go to Stanford is one thing, but to make history coming out of Philadelphia, especially in my generation when there are a lot of homicides — it’s really dangerous out here. To be known as the first kid out of Philadelphia to go to Stanford, I hope it really starts a trend for kids to follow behind me. It really excites me for what I [may] have started.”Still,believes Reid is the first Philly football player to commit to Stanford.
Whatever the case, Crosby, who was an assistant at his alma mater, West Catholic, in the early 2000s before leading Imhotep and now NG, said Reid’s future reminds him of those of previous players.
