I write about recruiting and tell stories, been in the game for five years. Thanks for reading, please @ me with any questions because this is all intended to be interactive.
We caught up with Maynard Jackson (GA) corner Dequanteous Watts as part of our signee Q&A series for the class of 2019. He answered a few questions as he prepares to make the transition from a Maynard Jackson Jaguar to a Texas Tech Red Raider.

What was the most memorable moment of your high school career?
"It was my first interception, my junior year."
What was your favorite part of the recruiting process?
"When my grades weren't right, there were coaches - like the coaches at Texas Tech - that stayed in contact with me and continued recruiting me knowing that I could take care of things."
What was the craziest thing a coach said to you in your recruitment?
"That is kind of hard to answer. There was one coach, he said something like 'if you choose us, be ready to come down here and work your ass off' and I remember that one."
What was the biggest reason you chose Texas Tech?
"To play early, and the opportunity to play defensive back in the Big12 conference. I feel that I could make it to the league from Tech."
