Comments from her head coach:

Kevin is a great leader on and off the field. He is a class act and is one of those special players that every coach dreams of having on their team. Teammates have a great deal of respect for him. Kevin is very modest and humble player that credits his success to his teammates and coaches. He exemplifies the meaning of the phrase student-athlete, excelling in the classroom, on the field and within the community. I am very proud of everything he does for this University. He is a great ambassador for Reddie Football and Henderson State University.
