OPELIKA HEAD COACH BRIAN BLACKMON  "Torey is a very intelligent guy, on and off the football field. He's a very dependable player, a guy that doesn't get too high or too low, and plays the same high level week in and week out.

"I think the ceiling is very, very high for Torey. You're talking about a guy who combines size with 4.7 speed. He's also our strongest guy, and holds our power clean record.

"Torey has a great frame, but he's a guy that will continue to grow and develop when he matures in that (Vanderbilt) environment. I see him simply getting better and better at Vanderbilt."
