Mississippi Gulf Coast recruit gives Red Raiders versatile option at safety

Too often last season, opposing teams dominated the Texas Tech defense. Vaughnte Dorsey wants to do his part to change that.

Dorsey, a 5-foot-10 1/2, 205-pound safety from Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, orally committed to Tech as he concluded a recruiting visit Sunday. Dorsey plans to sign with the Red Raiders when the mid-year signing period for junior-college transfers begins Dec. 14 and enroll in January.

“Lubbock, Texas, is a college town,” he said. “I think they support Texas Tech very well. I love the coaches. They bring a family atmosphere that was great. And they expect me to come in and be a leader and produce.
