Scouting Verdict

Productive returning RB (via Rice) — 158 rush yds/2 TD, 0 rec (2024). Grade benchmarked to a Pac-12/G5 draft-outcome projection, not inflated.

Ceiling · 7.0

Buried for now (Reserve) but young + talented — could win a role; significant upside (+3.9) · Pac-12 draft-temper · RB devalued (ceiling capped).

Floor · 1.9

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −1.2.
