Trey Turner
Head Coach Aaron Best on Turner: "He came to our quarterback camp and showed his physical talents and his character. He's very humble, competitive and driven which we need at all positions, but especially at quarterback. He has playmaking ability and can elude the first, second and third rushers, which in our system you have to be able to do. He's not a statue in the pocket. He's a leader and a captain, and he makes everybody else around him better. He comes from a great, structured family, and is very good in the classroom. We're excited to sign him as our 2019 quarterback in this class."
