bigred360 Posted August 3, 2011 Report Posted August 3, 2011 In your write-up about WO-S you mention a DB named Quinton Tezeno. Is this the son of one of the players back in the mid 80's who was a All-State safety, helping WO-S to the 4A state championship with players like Kevin Smith?After reading the write-up, WO-S is more talented than I thought.

Gasilla Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 Hard to say right now. He's just a Jr this yr and has not played varsity yet. We will know in a few weeks. Huge person to be compared to though... LOL

LOL[/quote]Yea, his dad was one heck of a football player and very physical. Not fair to compare the two because his dad was a special player. I was just surprise by the name being mentioned by WOSgrad and not hearing anything about him before now.
DP#1FAN Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 Great to hear those names come back through the Mustang Land.
kicker Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 Not sure about his play, but I saw him a few times last year at practices. He is twice the size that his dad was. If he has the ability and dedication that his father had then watch out! There are many kids of the 80's players that are in the WOS system now. Only time will tell if they can live up to their surname.

He has decent size, about like his dad.

Judex Posted August 5, 2011 Report Posted August 5, 2011 Zeno was a freak of nature and one might argue that he was the most physically talented player on the team while he was there and one of the most physically talented to ever go through the program. If he had had half of the intangibles of the other half of that defensive backfield, he would have gone even farther, and that is saying a lot.

[/quote]the intangibles that i was talking about are the things that would have kept him clear of the various issues that interrupted what should have been an NFL career ;)
