|
| Nice sized back with a strong build and does all the little things well. Outstanding receiver and pass blocker. Has good lateral agility and feet. Can make people miss and freeze defenders in their tracks. Sometimes dances a bit too much rather than getting right up field. Has enough breakaway speed to run away from defenders, but doesn't always accelerate to the corner. Outstanding character and is a positive locker room presence. |
| Biography: |
| Started since he was a freshman on varsity. Rushed for over 800 yards that first season. As a sophomore, he rushed for 500 yards through five games but missed the rest of the season with a shoulder injury. His junior season, he stayed healthy and rushed for 1473 yards on 182 carries and 14 touchdowns. |
