I have not seen a RB highlight film that impressive since Beanie's JR year film... and that film was just Elijah's first half of his JR year.

Get this kid on campus.

 

[sphincter]

Big guy can MOVE. Very impressive.

 

[MD Buckeye]

 

[Hodgepodge]

NOT a guy you want to try to tackle high.

 

[armsbendback]

I realize its a highlight tape and all, but it seriously looks like they let a HS Senior play against a series of 12 and under pop warner teams

 

[tonystarx]

Runs with an impressively low pad level to be listed @ 6 feet. Most impressive RB I've seen yet in the class. Come on Urban (fingers crossed).

 

[FrancisSoyer]

That play at 5:06! Excellent size, speed and toughness. Stay away Saban!

In terms of runningbacks or just overall 2014 potential recruits?

Really? Over Hurd?

edit: I know Hurd is listed as an athlete. But I think he is being recruited as a RB. Which is why I ask, over Hurd?
