Ken Washington and Darlene Young. No brothers or sisters. Rose into prominence his final year after playing sparingly as a reserve wide receiver in 1998. Another one of program s talented running backs who possesses the luxury of a remaining redshirted year. Provides the coaches with a wild card candidate who doesn t look capable of producing the results he does based on visible skills.
Doesn t possess blazing speed yet compensates for deficiency with great vision and quickness.
Has demonstrated uncanny ability to cut back against the grain and may possesses greatest acceleration to his top speed faster than any other back. Displays a natural feel for running with the ball while deceptive style helps elude tacklers. Once he masters offense better, will force coaches to take notice. His 47 yards rushing on 10 carries in the spring finale included 50-yard scoring burst. Oregon Football feedback Copyright 2001, Student Advantage, Inc. and the University of Oregon.
