Coach's Comments: "He's a quick kid, but he plays fullback because he's the strongest of the running backs," Horrell said. "He gives nothing up on speed. "He pretty much does it all. He's kicks our extra-points, kickoffs and does the punting. He's our special teams guru. He's an outstanding athlete who comes ready play. He's capable of doing that stuff in any game. He's a good all-around kid, off the field as well."
