Durante Speer brings length, range and proven ball skills to ECU’s secondary
Speer is a **6-foot-2, 195-pound redshirt freshman safety/DB** who arrives at East Carolina as a consensus **three-star recruit** with a reputation for being productive and active around the ball. In high school, he piled up **104 career tackles, 2 interceptions and 10 pass breakups**, and his recruiting profile ranked him among the better safety prospects in Georgia. His appeal is his size, tackling presence and coverage instincts; the main question for ECU is how quickly that high-school production translates to the college game. He looks like a solid fit for a defense that values range and physicality in the back end.[2][6][16]
