You may have heard, once or twice, that Southern quarterback Bryant Lee broke the school's all-time passing record at the Gulf Coast Classic.

Here are a few comments from some of the people know Lee inside and out.

Hahnville quarterbacks coach Mike Silva:

“I remember one game — we were down, panicking and everything. He comes to me and says, ‘Coach, don’t worry about it. We got it.’ I remember thinking, well, I’m glad he feels good about this game, ’cause I don’t. We came back and won that game.”

“Definitely a joy to be around. The first two years, he stayed by my hip pocket. The last two years, he had seen almost everything. He knew what was going to come out of our mouths before we knew it. He was able to make adjustments for all the other guys.”

SU tight end (and roommate) Warren Matthews:

“I think the main thing that people don’t know, the thing people would be surprised about, is B. Lee’s passion for the game. Everyone knows he’s a character. But we spend a lot of time in our room talking about the game, things we see on the field, the reasons why we love it. B. Lee’s passion for the game is ... it’s real. It’s unmatched.”

SU coach Pete Richardson:

“I think I’ll remember his development as a football player. He came in, learned the system and really improved his maturity level. He understands now that if they’re going to double a guy, and you have to go to the other receivers until you get them one on one.”

Former SU quarterback Eric Randall:

“Inch by inch, you see those things happen. I told him before the season, get the (SWAC championship) ring as well as the yardage title. He’s short on one, but certainly he’ll be remembered as an outstanding quarterback — and he has two games left. So he’s going to shatter the record and make it that much more difficult for the next players to come through here.”

SU wide receiver Juamorris Stewart:

“The thing I’ll probably remember most about B. Lee is his humor. He’s a funny dude. It’s been really fun playing with him. You’ve just got to be thankful to have a guy like that on your team.”
