Obviously he's not his brother, but what are we expecting out of him this year?

Couple plays here and there. Mostly special teams.

To give the other backs a breather, pass protect, and to not fumble.

I thought he looked pretty good in Spring.

Won't be suprised if he contributes.

He hasnt been mentioned at all. Odd.

He can show all the new players the most comfortable spots on the bench to sit.

Ride the pine and play a few downs here and there.

This on offense.

Hopefully he is a solid special teamer?

I would.

CEH and Curry are way better. Brossette is better. And I think Provens will be better in his role as a scat guy.

I think he is the sleeper this year. He was good in HS but tremendously overshadowed by his brother. I think he will surprise people this year because nobody expects anything from him...

He's better than Nick Brossette

He will be the tailback for every game this season as we run Victory formation at the end of each game.

He's not a small back at 5'11 206. I would love to see him get a few carries here and there. If he doesn't get many carries this year being we are so "new" at RB then I doubt he will get many next year.

With all that said, I don't think he touches the ball much. Hats off to him for sticking it out here. I know he is getting an education but he could have transferred out to a Southeastern or a Nicholls
