Not super shifty, but his high speed looks deceptive because of his long strides. And at 6'1", he'll probably break 230 lbs in a college weight room.

Kind of reminds me of Dwyer. Go to 5:51 to see him keep working his legs and move a pile of defenders 5 yards after he got stood up.
 
The video is better toward the end. It starts with breakaway runs showing speed, but it ends more impressively with lots and lots of broken tackles. 6:59 is something.

He's got a great first cut; sticks his foot in the ground and pivots hard. After that, he's got the jets to outrun folks. Yes, he does remind of Dwyer in his HS video and FR/SO seasons before he gained the weight. That guy is a good-looking running back!
 
Lots of stuff on the film that you can't teach/coach. Now, we have to hold on to him.

Watson & Williams could be something really special....... if the secheat doesn't buy them.
 
Welcome to the flats!!! Glad to see the coach getting it done on the recruiting trail!

And we are getting looks from one of the top 2024 QB prospects (whose short list is pretty short). Long way to go before we can cash any of these chips in but I'd rather be ahead early than behind early.
