WATCH: USC 4-star RB commit A'Marion Peterson muscles in for a rushing TD
Wichita Falls (Texas) Hirschi four-star running back and USC commit A’Marion Peterson is not easy to bring down when he gets a full head of steam.
He demonstrated that Thursday night in Wichita Falls (Texas) Hirschi’s game against Brock (Texas) High.
On a handoff out of the shotgun inside the red zone, Peterson was almost immediately surrounded by defensive players. But the 6-foot-1 bruiser would not be stopped at one point shedding a defender like a cocoon to reach the end zone.
Peterson is the No. 333 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
The 2023 On300 ranking has Peterson as the No. 218 overall prospect in the cycle and the No. 11 running back
He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $22k. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
A’Marion Peterson Scouting Summary
Super productive back who runs like a freight train between the tackles and has the bounce and vision to make defenders miss in the hole. Ran for 1,817 yards on 238 carries and scored an insane 28 touchdowns during his junior season. Excellent frame with room to fill out. Quality build and weight distribution. Stands in at 5-foot-10.5, right around 200 pounds. Runs with high pad level but easily fixable at next level. Decisive runner that will fight to earn the tough yards and still has the long speed to hit the occasional home run. High floor back that will be productive early on in his career and could see draft buzz if he is able to maintain his athleticism as he adds mass.
