Hawkeyes Offer Juco RB

[ssckelley]

Is he as good as Paki?

If he commits, I will assume DeAndre Johnson or Jordan Canzeri leave for lack of playing time.

Iowa needs to play a 2 back or even 3 back (MSU) rotation next season with who they'd have and to get experience and even keep happy.

Johnson.

Well, from watching the first 90 seconds of the video, looks like he'd be a heckuva tail back in Northwestern's read option offense. But they very rarely take jucos. He can catch a screen pass in the flat, too. Another skill that will not serve him well at Iowa. Looks very talented and could be a real threat in a system that would get him out into space to take advantage of his speed.

Zing!

SEPARATION------ BALANCE----SSSSSSSPEEEEEDD!!!!!!

Looks like a Wide Reciever after the catches. The best part? He only has 2 years to play.
That fits UofI 2 YEAR TERM for running backs. lol

Unfortunately this is the truth.

Yup, Iowa is a really bad option for talented running backs who like to carry the ball (a lot) and run behind future first round NFL linemen.

Holy Cow!

I really hope we get this kid! WE have not had a RB with that speed in a while.

Was he a non-qualifier and what were his original offers? Sorry if I missed that somewhere.

You got that right!

Russell had it for the first five yards, BW had it after that. This guy looks to have both.

 

[MoseSchrute]

After watching that vid, he pretty much looks like he would immediately be our best RB.

 

[ohhawk]

Some inference of U of Cal getting interested in him as well as of late. Hope our story is strong because they have a very reputable and noted RB coach. An opportunity to play in warm weather and closer to home wouldn't help either.

Need to close him on the visit.....if he makes it.

i've been trying to find that as well - what would have been his original class? '09?

 

[ohhawk]

Little more on him. A view quotes from him in this article that would seem to marry up well with our culture of hard work and no false promises or fairy tales about what to expect going forward.
