Broke into the starting lineup as a freshman and has played with
the first team ever since. Senior rushing totals were 145/665/7 with
15/148 as a receiver. Played in two games during the ‘05 season,
before being sidelined with a groin injury. Made a major impact as a
freshman, with career-best totals of 1,029 yards rushing and 12
touchdowns.
Pos:
Patient back, effective running on the inside. Waits for blocks to
develop, finds the running lanes and weaves through the traffic on the
inside. Shows terrific vision, follows blocks anywhere on the field
and is a solid receiver out of backfield. Picks up blocking
assignments and works until the whistle blows.
Neg:
Slow adjusting off the initial hit and does not run with great
balance. Lacks a burst through the hole and is not very elusive. |
