Productive college runner that has started since he was a true freshman, leading Northern Arizona in rushing three of the past Four-years. Ground numbers were 224/1,287/5.7/9 as a senior when he caught 14/105/7.5. Best season carrying the ball was 2000 when he totaled 269/1,474/5.5/13, also catching 32/317/19.9. Used to return kicks his first two seasons in school and averaged more than 30 yards on 17 returns.
Jitterbug type runner and a potential third down specialist. Quick footed, sets up defenders and makes them miss, cutting it back against the grain. Runs low to the ground, gets lost behind his lineman and slides through the smallest openings. Sees the field, finds the running lane and works his runs. Keeps his feet moving forward and puts his shoulders into opponents when being tackled. Shows a burst through the hole but does not posses the break away speed. Lacks playing strength in all aspects of the game; does not pick up yardage off initial contact and though he gives an attempt blocking in pass protection he is not effective. Slow adjusting off the initial hit and regaining running form. Possible change of pace back at the next level but must make his mark on special teams in the final analysis. Free Agent.
