Iffy cohort, not a physical specimen - Mike Hart-esque.

That's not to say he isn't a good football player, because he appears to have solid quickness, explosiveness, balance, hands, vision, and so on. Actually, you could argue he's perfectly suited to Kelly's pop-gun offense because he looks really good catching out of the backfield - and his receiving stats back that up.

But he doesn't look impressive physically (very thick legs, but no muscle definition in his upper body), doesn't seem to have great deep speed, and his best other offer was Michigan. Beyond that, maybe Wisconsin or MSU.

As mentioned above, Mike Hart looks like a good comp: great against the bulk of the schedule, but not enough physical strength and speed to run against elite competition. I think most would take that kind of career, though.


Not sure I get the upper body knock. You want thick

In the legs for a RB. Rest makes sense.
