Some may raise an eyebrow over a backup getting an offer like this but I'm telling you right now this kid will turn heads next season. Great speed and incredible vision which combos with his cutting abilities to make him very difficult to tackle in the open field. Only reason he isn't a three year starter is because he was behind another D1 RB.

Don't you think he projects as corner rather than running back for Wake??

This makes more sense from a film perspective at least. He's got great ball skills as a corner and tremendous speed. I've just been excited to see him finally get to be RB1 for us so I was only thinking about that aspect.
