Dee Winters has gone from a one-gas-station town to one of TCU’s best defenders

BY DREW DAVISON

Dee Winters didn’t have much to say when asked about growing up in Burton.

“There’s only one gas station,” Winters said. “There’s not a lot.”

That’s understandable for a town with a population of 560, according to the 2018 U.S. Census data, located off Highway 290 between Austin and Houston.

Winters has been great this year and just keeps getting better. I'm so excited about our young defenders. Next years starters/key contributors likely include freshmen and sophomores at both DE spots, both CBs, 2-3 of the safeties (depending on if TM leaves), both LBs, and at least 1 of the DTs.

Winters is full of piss and vinegar. Really like the way he plays.

I think Winters has been our best LB this year, that is saying a lot.

He’s our best defender since Daniels is out. His future is very bright.

Our D was bringing the wood on Saturday, and outside of two pass plays, that was a pretty salty effort. There were some sore Tech players yesterday.

I suspect Henry Colombi tops that list

I really like it when he hits someone hard. He really is powerful.

It almost seems like he's gone through some kind of transformation...

He morphed from an entire town to one person. Maybe that's how he hits so hard? He's got the weight of 560 people coming with him!
