Coach DeWeese's Comments: "JD is an athletic guard with exceptional defensive ability.  He comes from one of the best programs at Odessa College in the best JC conference in the country.  JD has the ability to lock up an opposing teams best guard while also making plays and creating paint-touches on the other end of the floor.  His athleticism and competitiveness will make him a great asset to the program!"
