Coach McGuire’s signing day remark on Chandlin...
“Another West Texas Tough guy. Local kid not very far from here. We’ll probably start him off at receiver but he’s a guy that we recruited to play defensive back or receiver. He’s got great length and really good that he’s a mid-year because he has a ton of room to grow.”
