Pos:
Aggressive lead blocker with solid size\speed
numbers. Quick out of his stance,
displays excellent blocking vision and immediately gets to
the second level, creating space for ball carriers. Has the speed and agility to get outside around tackle. Accelerates
into blocks and always working to put a shoulder into opponents. Patient,
seals the corner and works hard in all aspects. Solid overall awareness and immediately becomes the hot receiver if the
quarterbacks in trouble.
Neg:
Not used much to handle the ball and a
marginally productive offensive player.
Analysis:
Underrated by many scouting concerns coming
into the season, Runnels has the ability to be a true triple threat fullback at the next level.
Rarely handles the ball in Oklahoma's offensive scheme yet could be one of the hidden
gems at the fullback position next April.
