Defensive Line | 6'3 | 250
Brother Rice HS | Bloomfield Hills, Mich.
Brother Rice Head Coach Al Fracassa
"I can't say enough great things about Conor as a football player, student and person. Vanderbilt is getting a very special young man.
"Conor is the latest in a long time of outstanding football players in that family. He loves the game, knows the game, and plays with a great deal of enthusiasm.
"Conor is a tremendous athlete, a big guy with excellent speed. He actually ran the 100 in track for us. Imagine a 250-pounder that runs a 10.9. He has the physical strength and speed to play effectively on the outside at defensive end."
