He went off for 321 yards on 15 carries last night. Everything I hear on him is that he's small and fast ala trindon (i know he's not as fast as trindon), noel devine, jaquizz whoever from oregon state.

I've never seen him in person though; does anyone have any more info as to why he's not getting a little more heavily recruited? I understand he prolly isn't LSU material but just wondering why no other schools are in on him.

I heard Stanford was looking at him; but he's not in any recruiting databases. I'm trying to find the season stats on him now.

Because before this year he wasen't a big time high school player or even on most people's recruiting radar. Playing at a very small town high school that has hardly any footall success or tradition doesn't help either.



He's not a big time college player neither a mid major guy either. He may end up at a D2 school somewhere.

He is probably 5-9/175. He is a very tough runner for his size and has really good hands.He doesn't have elite speed however. He probably runs about a 4.6 in the 40. He is very smart and also a very humble young man. I have seen him play many times and i actually think he can be quite effective at a mid-major division 1 school.

I think he would be good at LA Tech, ULM. Dude can go and he is strong as a bull. He probably is only 5'9. Very coachable and likable kid. Plays extremely hard.

Murray was actually timed in the 40 at a Houston combine after his sophmore season at a 4.41. I have seen him play multiple times this year and no one has caught him once he was in the open. By no means am I saying that he is a tiger prospect, but I do believe he would be a good fit in Ruston. He is a genuine kid who will give you everything he has got. I also would list him at 5'10" 180-185.

He's a legit 4.5 guy. He also is a freak in the weight room. His knock is that up until this year he didn't get the number of carries to show case how good he is. Javaris is 5'9 175 and did get a 25 on the ACT. He's good enough to play D-1 ball, but with it getting late in recruiting who knows. McNeese is going after him hard.

He was a freak last year. Great kid extremely coachable. Ran a 4.31 at McNeese's time day this summer. He didn't go to any camps before his senior year so many people didn't know about him. Tried to get La Tech look at him constantly, but McNeese was the only one who offered.
