Highly rated out of high school. Injured at U W.
Appears to have loads of potential upside should he be healthy and able... Kid looking for a shot with tons of talent derailed by injuries and re-injury. No doubt Mullen was one of the 40 P5 programs recruiting him during his HS days.
Wow another RB but I like this one the best. Three years of eligibility? Very nice.
I fully expect it to be Jet and one of these big power backs as the wumbo combo when its all said and done.
Which means 1 year under the current transfer definitions. And we do not know if he is still injured..
Apparently he’s also fast. Seeing he runs between a 4.4 and a 4.6. That’s a whole lot of moving mass with momentum.
On a side note, I wonder if Demarco put in a good word for living in Las Vegas.
Wow! I’m a news source now! Sick. I have spoken to him and can confirm it’s true.
🤣
Reminds of this quote from the movie Major League.
- Lou Brown: Hey, Jake. How's the knees holding up?
- Jake Taylor: Great! Never been better.
- Lou Brown: Mobility's good? No problem getting off the throw to second?
- Jake Taylor: No problemo.
- Lou Brown: I need a catcher, Jake. Someone who can lead this team on the field. But I want the absolute truth, here, are you 100 percent?
- Jake Taylor: Yeah, would I bullshit you about something like that?
- Lou Brown: You better, if you wanna make this team.
Man that last one has him running over the safety. Loving the yards after contact. Was he just buried on the depth chart? Was there an injury?
Looks like he had a major knee injury senior year in HS. Required multiple surgeries to repair.
Yeah had a beast of a Jr season, signed with UW, transfered HS and tore up his knee. UW coach told him to enroll early to get best care in WA. He sued UW this year saying they rushed him back and caused more injury to his knee and basically ended his ability to make money. Isn't a scholarship player at Oklahoma and hasn't gotten playing time, but if he's healthy and gets back to where his talent was, he's going to be a beast
Well at least we know he is a good practice player. The floor is set, lol
That is too bad for him. Signing makes sense though maybe he ends up a depth piece but getting him for the potential.
Overcoming being injury prone can happen, remember Catalon before UNLV!
He makes his injury sound more permanent but still worth signing him given the potential upside. Plus you have him 3 years.
I don’t think anyone did, but just in case you doubted it. This comes from the man himself.
These are the types of pickups that can make differences for you. He's not going to be a focal point of the offense so we aren't depending on this kind of transfer to be an "impact" guy.. But if he gets on the field and gets some of his ability back to where his HS talent was at, he can be a huge steal.
I think that can be said for the general approach to bringing in some of these transfers. Not every one will work out, but the ones who do and arent who you are depending on 100% to be that guy but can be, are what can separate us from rest of the conference.

This is similiar to Arroyo taking a gamble on Justin Rogers. You absolutely take a chance on a guy like this.
