Deyon Bouie missed his entire junior season of high school football with a torn ACL and MCL injury that he suffered in preseason conditioning. Before the injury he was a MaxPreps preseason junior All-American second-team selection. During his freshmen and sophomore seasons, Bouie played everywhere, including cornerback, receiver and quarterback. Bouie’s nickname is “Smoke.” His mother, Maria Bouie, said he’s been called that since he was little. Bouie plans on majoring in law in college. He lists reading as his hobby.
