Fifth-year prospect that saw action at both running back and fullback in the past. Only carried the ball eight times as a senior, but did catch 26/301/11.6/1 and awarded second team All-Conference honors. Redshirted in 2000 with a shoulder injury after rushing for 98/368/3.7/1 as a junior and catching 11/165/15/1 in 1999. Team's feature runner as a sophomore when he had career numbers on the ground carrying 163/734/4.5/4.
Solid athlete but a player whose football career never took off after what seemed to be a promising start. Displays vision carrying the ball he, waits for his blocks to develop and follows them. Keeps his feet moving up the field, works his run and picks up extra yardage off initial contact. Accelerates into the defender as a lead fullback displaying pop at the point of attack and quick recognizing his assignments in pass protection or picking up blitzes. Lacks overall speed, quickness and the ability to run in any direction either than straight ahead. Does not have the speed to be a feature runner at the next level nor the size to be an every down fullback. Free Agent.
