His stats from last year are Tecmo Super Bowl numbers.

I don't think I can even rack those up in Tecmo! Nutz!

Suprised he only had two FBU offers. Wonder what the competition was like? Still pretty impressive numbers for a junior year. Any film link?

Thanks for the link !!! Good looking player, but some seriously bad pop warner defenses.

His competition isn't the greatest by no means but he is from a area that has a lot of good players. He is from a smaller town just to the NE of the KC metro. He definitely has the build and talent though. I know he was getting BIG XII looks but probably a kid that was going to get more play with the FBS schools during his senior season. Right or wrong, these are the type of kids the FCS schools live off of. Find the playmaker that will be overlooked by the big boys due to competition. Wyoming isn't in the position to neglect these kids... not to mention they are the type of kids that would likely stay in Laramie due to size/comfort of town.

Maybe he'll be the next Herron type?

And MWC defenses are better? Outside of USU and a bipolar SDSU defense, MWC defenses allowed for 90s style WAC offenses.

Except AA never ran downhill. Always went East-West first. If a hole didn't open up, we lost yards because he wouldn't try to go through. With Wick and May leading the RBs, I think we'll be fine.

Long as the touchdowns are at the end of the run doesn't matter how he got there.
