HEAD COACH RON GARTRELL
"Kenny is a wonderful young man and excellent football prospect for the Commodores. He has been one of our most consistent performers in the defensive secondary.
"Kenny brings a tremendous amount to the football field. He is a very intelligent player, a guy that can run well and hit like a linebacker. He's the kind of safety that doesn't come around all that often.
"Kenny also brings tremendous instincts to the safety position. He knew his responsibilities and those of the guys playing with him."
