The UW edge rusher needs to put all obstacles behind him.
That would describe the entirety of Zach Durfee's University of Washington football career. The senior edge rusher from Dawson, Minnesota, remains an extremely promising yet sorely untested and mysterious presence for the Montlake team -- maybe holding the title of the greatest Husky who's never really played.
DeBoer was more succinct when discussing the supposedly imposing Durfee after he had transferred in from Sioux Falls, which was DeBoer's alma mater and a prior coaching stop: "He's a big guy who can run." This is one in a series of articles -- going from 0 to 99 on the Husky roster -- examining what each scholarship player and leading walk-on did this past spring and what to expect from them going forward.Durfee is an interesting physical specimen, Midwest sturdy, and very much his own person, either wearing his hair shaved or bushy.
On his first Power 5 play, Durfee used a spin move to get close to Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers, who threw a pass that was knocked down by UW defensive tackle Tuli Letuligasenoa. On the next snap, Durfee drove his man into Ewers, who stood in there and threw a 12-yard completion.
