Junior entry. Two-year starter. Two-time All-Big 12 including first team honors in 2023 in addition to being named All-America and winning the Doak Walker Award. Oversized with extra girth in the right places. Exploded onto the scene as a first-year starter and set an almost unfair and unrealistic bar to reach on a team that went from ten wins in 2023 to just three in 2024. He saw over 100 less touches and never quite gained the momentum he had plenty of the season prior. There is enough on tape over that span, however, to label him a capable contributor at the next level. He is a massive, well-built back capable of breaking tackles routinely and picking up the tough yards. There is more to his game than being a simple bruiser and even though there are physical limitations to his game, he can help an offense in multiple ways. Lower body is capable of producing extra horsepower through traffic. Will push piles and fall forward. Forces defenders to make a hard decision when he comes downhill with a head full of steam. Quick decision maker with a bias toward running through defenders makes him a reliable option in short yardage. Smooth receiver with over 80 career catches and a violent one-strike blocker in pass protection. Runs high and has a heaviness to his footwork. Takes a while to get going. Lacks looseness to change direction abruptly. May need to be limited to specific run designs. Does not sustain proper positioning as a blocker.
2024 Stats: 880 yds, 4.6 ypc, 13 TD, 29 rec, 179 yds, 6.2 ypr, 1 TD. OSR:22/27. Draft projection: 3rd/4th round
