Perhaps
no player in the history of Stanford football can make the claim Coy Wire
can: team leader in both rushing and tackles
While records do not verify
this fact, certainly in modern times Stanford has not had a player who
led the team in rushing and then, two years later, led the team in tackles,
but Coy has done just that
He led the team in rushing in 1998 and tackles
in 2000 and 01 after being moved from running back to safety to inside
linebacker
Coy had started seven games at running back from 1998-99, but
was moved to safety in the spring of 2000 and then to ILB in the fall
of 2000
He was the team's starter at running back as a redshirt freshman
in 1998 before a hand injury forced him to miss the final six games of
the year
He still finished the year as the team's leading rusher and then
started the first two games of the '99 season
Has rushed for 615 yards
and scored six touchdowns in his Stanford career
Coy brings with him spirit
and enthusiasm for the game that is matched by few on the team
One of
the team leaders in 2001 and key weapon on the Cardinal defense, he finished
his career with 177 tackles (111 solos), 11 sacks for minus 70 yards and
26 stops for losses of 108 yards.
