    In his last two games his numbers are as follows :

    @Derrider 17-159 1TD, 1rec - 15, he is also there kick returner and believe it or not he punts and kicks, he had 1 extra point on 1 attempt that night.

    @Jennings 21-131yds, and a extra point.

    Being from the local area and knowing a few of his friends. This kid is the real deal. But, has alot of pressure and responsibility on this team. He is there Mr. Everything. He would be a great pickup for us in that 09 class. Has loads of upside.

    he is 5'10 198 he runs a 4.56 40, but aint afraid to take it inside. If anything he runs like CS does for us right now. Accroding to rivals he is being looked at by ALA, LSU, FLA, MIA, OLE Miss, UCLA. His 2006 stats as a sophmore look like this : 181 att. 1334 yds 7.8 per and 18 TDS

    He's definitely a 5* RB next year. Reportedly very strong lean for LSU per TigerRag. The state of LA is loaded at RB next year across the board.

    Against 135 yards rushing on 21 carries against Jennings last Friday. His first 2 carries went for 37 yards. I read that the field was very wet he had trouble with his cuts.

    yeah field was very wet and nobody was throwing the ball so they could actually concentrate on stopping the run. They were keeping 7 to 8 guys in the box at all times. I think he is really over worked on this leesville team, if they could find a way to just use him as RB, then he would be an even bigger beast. imo

    The main threat on this list seems to be Alabama. Hope Miles can keep up the fence around LA. Makes our games with them the next two years that much more important.

    It looks like he'll be a top 5 RB for next year, 5 star recruit, and is definitely leaning towards LSU at this point.

    I've heard that our coaches have already told him he's our #1 priority for next year.

    His speed is the only knock against him.
