SCOUTING: From the first time we watched this quality football talent during his junior year, there was simply no doubt that this was a special prospect. His quickness off the ball overwhelmed a number of opponents this year during a season that was one of the most productive in school history. If any college is looking for a player who will make a difference at the next level, this is someone you get on campus fast. Andreassen is not just another player. He makes a difference and can alter a game with his big-play capabilities. The coaches called him one of the most consistent football players on a team loaded with plenty of talent. Teams started to game plan to ensure that he would not be in the backfield on every play - or chasing backs down at the line of scrimmage. He has to be one of the top five underexposed and under-publicized athletes in South Florida despite being a consistent playmaker all year.
