Regis, who hails from La Porte, Texas, had a standout performance in the previous season, starting all 13 games at defensive tackle. He showcased his defensive skills with a total of 36 tackles, which comprised 16 solo tackles and 3.0 tackles for loss. Regis ranked third among Southeastern Conference (SEC) defensive linemen for pass breakups, achieving six total pass breakups throughout the season. This metric underscores his agility and effectiveness in defensive maneuvers, which were particularly evident during a notable three-game stretch where he registered two pass breakups against New Mexico State and additional breakups against Auburn and Texas. Moreover, he consistently contributed to his team’s defense by achieving at least four tackles in four separate games, culminating in a career-best performance of six tackles against Texas.
Community Service Contributions
Beyond his on-field accomplishments, Regis has demonstrated a profound commitment to community service, which is a crucial component in the evaluation of candidates for the Wuerffel Trophy.

Regis’s efforts extended to the healthcare sector as well; he assisted in preparing and distributing gift bags for pediatric cancer patients at MD Anderson Hospital in Houston, reflecting his dedication to uplifting vulnerable populations.
Furthermore, Regis has actively engaged with younger generations by speaking at local elementary schools, promoting the importance of education and the pursuit of personal excellence. His efforts within the community have not gone unnoticed, leading to his selection for the SEC Community Service Team in 2024, highlighting the significance placed on athlete involvement in social causes by the conference.
