Honestly, not that impressed. It is easy to bowl people over when you are that much bigger than they are.

Looks like he lumbers in the open field. With a 4.7 40, probably hand-timed, the TDs he scored in HS will be 5-yard gains at the FBS level - which will be a plus inside the 5-yard line. What do we know about his "want-to" - is it LMJ want-to good?

Not sure of the competition but all I can say is...Ummm WOW!!!...No offense Karlhungis but it's not easy to just run people over like that, he has amazing balance and takes those hits like there nothing, even from bigger guys...I think he'd be a huge get playing Running back or Linebacker and I really hope we lock him up

No offense taken. I just see a guy that is so much bigger than his competition that it makes it difficult to judge what he will be like on this level.

How can you not be impressed by his highlight vid? That kid runs & hits HARD, seems to play with a serious attitude. Something you can't really teach. He's obviously got size & ability so if he brings that kinda ferocity with it he's gonna be successful.

I agree that his competition does look lackluster, and if someone knew a little about his school's classification level that would be helpful...But he does explode on people and also when he hits the edge he looks faster than the 4.7 but that could also be the competition.

Seems t0 consistently break the first tackle, and falls
forward, even in a crowd.
North High School, in Torrance California, is a 4 year, public HS, with an enrollment of around 3000 students, in 24 buildings, and 100 classrooms.

Athletic competitions are in the Pioneer League, which includes Torrance, el Segundo, Centennial/Com, South Torrance, North Torrance, and Lawndale.
His team is currently 1-4 in league play, and 2-8 overall... Ouch.

I think Tra Carson has got our power back position covered for the next 3 years. We are more of a speed in space type of team anyways so i just don't see the need to add a lumbering RB every year.
I will say this tho, the guy sure knows how to run downhill!!!

The only reason why McDaniel isn't in the national spotlight is due to a knee injury that has kept him out of most of this season. McDaniel doesn't currently have an offer by the way, but does have one from Washington. I hope we strongly consider him, though Chris Brown appears to be higher on the priority list.

What position is Oregon recruiting him for?
He looks like a great fit at LB IMO.

He reminds me so much of Malcolm Jones in high school.
