Having watched alot of OU games over the past few years this guy is honestly a STUD when healthy. He runs alot like Mixon and is similar in size, speed, patience and has great vision. He's a strong runner with good potential receiving out of the backfield as well. During his healthy year (the year after Mixon) he put up very similar numbers and made OU forget Mixon left. He rushed for 201 yards against Georgia (yes that Georgia) in their bowl game in 2017.
If not for his injury history he would have easily been at worst a 2nd day pick. He needs work on pass blocking but with his size and willingness to hit while running I would imagine he could learn.
He was a Heisman hopeful going into the 2018 season and if you want some reviews by the Professionals here's a good site.
