and saying he's one of the best RBs in the history of the state, etc.

what is interesting about him is that he wasn't really discovered till a few games into the year. they were platooning with poole, booker got more reps, but not a lot more. it was RB by committee most of september last year. and he really didn't start getting a lot of reps until 4 games into the season. so, if he's the best rb in the history of the state, the utah coaches didn't know it coming out of fall camp. 10 carries, 10 carries, 11 carries...then all of a sudden his carries doubled (or tripled).

also, it is interesting how many yards he got last year after contact. he gets hit a lot, but doesn't go down, which is impressive.

he's obviously the key to utah's season.
