Coaches Comments: hat can I say about Dre. The kid is a killer a silent assassin. His ability to attack the ball at its highest point is unmatched. His route running is flawless he’s not going to blow past you with his speed but his ability to separate is like no other. Very few people have the ability to cover him for four straight quarters. I’m very impressed with his work this offseason his top priority was to get stronger and he did. When you have a player like him in your secondary not only does he have the ability to shutdown your #1 target he also can completely shutdown a side of a field. He’s fearless he has no issue putting his body on the line to make a tackle.

What I love about Dre is not only his ability to adapt but his football IQ is so high he has the ability to make real time adjustments within scheme that just can’t be taught. Not to mention his leadership style is so unique because he doesn’t talk much and yet everyone wants to follow.

We are blessed to have a player of his caliber in our program. Going into his Senior year I can’t wait to see what he does. The kid is the “Best in the Business” if you didn’t know before this kid is box office.
