CLASS PRIZE

Reddick's status sky rocketed during senior year

COACH BUTCH DAVIS

"One of the characteristics that epitomizes this class is the fact that it has speed ... and it's also a class that's got playmakers. ... Whether it's offensively, catching the ball as receivers, running backs, tight ends, the H-backs, those are going to be highly prolific. And certainly, the defensive players, [they have the] the ability to put pressure on the quarterback."
