Football Recruiting: Defensive Back Quincy Addison Signs LOI With Texas Tech

Verbally committing to Texas Tech at that beginning of May, Addison was the first defensive player to join the 2017 recruiting class. At 6-foot-2 Addison has the height that defensive coordinator David Gibbs is looking for in his defensive backfield but he will likely need a redshirt year in 2017 to add quality weight to withstand the rigors of Big 12 football.

Per the website 247Sports.com, Addison is ranked as the 151st prospect in Texas and the 84th-best high school safety in the nation.

A physical tackler, Addison plays safety like a missile eager to launch himself at ball carriers.
