Summary

He had an excellent INDY workout, posting speeds in the 4.42 range while finishing with a VJ of 36 1/2 inches and a BJ of 10 ft. 7 inches...and for a little back he out up 20 on the BP...he is an outstanding JC RB before tranferring to BYU...he is really only a one year starter after assuming the postion as junior but he finished the 1997 season with 1004 yds and 12 TDs but had only 15 receptions in BYU’s post style offense...he really shows good overall AA and he has good quickness and deep speed...he has enough short burst and qucks through the hole and the ability to break a long run...he likes to bounce it to the outside and he has enough niftiness in COD to make peoples miss in the open field...he is not a power runner and he certianly does not have alot of experience in blocking and for all of his speed and COD, he is not magical in space...He has good potential as a pass catcher out of the back field but surprisingly needs more work on his routes and awareness of the passing game despite playing in one of the most progressive pass offenses on the college level...his speed will definately intrigue some teams and ther e is some upside because he is basically a one year producer on the college level...could be a potential nickle type RB or certainly a complimentary back.
