About Bryant, L.A. Harbor coach Andrew Alvillar said:
"He's a great kid. He'll be a great asset to the program. He's a hard-working kid. He gets the most out of any situation. He'll be missed in our program. He was a leader on our team." (HA)

About Bryant who set the team record last season with 14 pass breakups, Alvillar said:

Bryant said that before the end of his recruiting trip yesterday he decided that:
"Hawai'i is where I want to be. I love coach Mack. I love his coaching style, and the way he approaches things, the way he handles his business. And I met my personal coach, (Rich) Miano. He's great. He knows his stuff." (HA)

About how their two freshmen starting safeties looked to Bryant for leadership, Alvillar said:
"He's a real physical type of player. He's physically strong. He's really determined to be the best player he can be. He strives to be the best. He works hard. He does a lot of extra stuff. He's really going to dive into this opportunity and make the most of it, for sure." (HA)

Adding that Bryant performs a lot of community service and his active in his church, Alvillar said:
"He's a good role model. And he's low maintenance. Tell him what to do and, and he'll do it above and beyond. You'll never have to worry about him." (HA)
