MotSaG Chat with Patrice Rene

3star_recruit_iconI recently interviewed 2016 Cornerback standout Patrice Rene from Ottowa Ontario in Canada. Rene is a tall physical cornerback standing at 6″2 185lbs. Rene got the opportunity to attended Friday Night Lights and by all accounts was one of the most physically imposing defensive back there. Rene runs a 4.58 40 yard dash and says he is continuing to improve his time each time he runs it by practicing his technique. Rene is not currently ranked by any site, however the staff made Rene aware how hard they were going to continue to recruit him.
