Coach Keith Smith: I’ve never seen a kid hit with the impact that Priest does. He’s a violent tackler. I’ve had a couple coaches watch his highlight tape and they said they’ve never seen a kid with picture perfect form type tackles. And he does it tackle after tackle after tackle. He hits guys right in the mouth. He runs right through them and knocks them back. He does it all the time. . I’ve never seen a kid attack all the time the way he does. I don’t care if you’re 140 or 240."
