Junior-college transfer that saw extensive action the past two seasons, splitting the starting duties last year as a senior. Second team All-Conference choice after leading the team in rushing in '01, accounting for 257/1,396/5.4/9 on the ground while catching 6/70/11.7/0. Ran for 89/339/3.8/1 the prior season when he played in ten games.

Nice-sized back that must fine tune his running skills. Runs low to the ground with forward lean, keeps his feet moving forward and works hard to pick up positive yardage. Displays a burst through the hole, has some wiggle in his run and fast for a bigger back. Strong and effective when asked to block. Not an instinctive ballcarrier, does not run with good vision nor is he elusive. Does not always play like a 230 pound back or pick up a lot of yardage off initial contact. Really came on as a senior and the light may have finally gone on. Did an admirable job during combine workouts and could sneak into the very late rounds. Late Seventh Round.
