“Akial Byers is a kid that we signed from incoming class from Fayetteville along with Taylor Powell. Both were teammates and I think tremendous players … in the offseason -- in the summer workouts, both of those guys stand out in the work they've done.” – Barry Odom, head coach

“O’Shae Clark is a fast little guy and Aubrey Miller from Memphis, he’s going to be good. He works and works and he wants to play and he has a lot of energy so we need that. He’s going to be a good guy.” – J’Mon Moore, junior wide receiver
