<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We enter the film room and identify a batch of running backs out of Fargo that have great upside to show off in the next year or two as a handful of these I love the chances they have to play at the next level. From incoming sophomores to incoming seniors, this list gives our subscribers a good look at the up and comers out of Fargo at running back.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1590646' first='Collin' last='Williams'], RB/ATH, Fargo Davies 2026</strong> </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Collin was one of the workhorses in the backfield for the Eagles during the 11AAA state championship game I watched in November as one that I feel has some position flexibility at the next level too. He shows off ample fluidity with the ball in his hands and that is the first skillset I remember popping out at the FargoDome along with his quite durable frame. He also has a good burst that shows off well on the outside edges. He is one that shows off upside with his vision within the inside box as I felt he is a tailback with feeling his skillsets get better with time.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Luke Conroy, RB/LB, Fargo Davies 2028</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Luke is a new 2028 name on my radar out of Fargo Davies. The 5'9 170 pounder goes off a solid mix of vision and durability with his reps and is explosive once he gets out of the inside box with his burst. With his size I was quite impressed with how durable he is getting contact yards as just a freshman this year as the constance of what he shows on tape is intriguing. There are not too many freshmen running backs that if you blink you might miss them but with Luke he shows off those reps persistently. He is one I need to get on our 2028 rankings for sure with also a good matching wrestling background.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1314711' first='Alexander' last='Lind'], RB, Fargo North 2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Alexander is another new name to my radar out of Fargo North in the 2027 class. When this kid gets a full head of steam downhill you might want to watch out as he runs like a bowling ball headed down the lane with full effect of use of his 5'11 195 lb frame. He also shows off another running back in this grouping that shows off growing fluidity, especially once he reaches the second level of the field. Although his tape is very light Alexander is a young man out of Fargo North that shows some promise.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1590660' first='Mikel' last='Lockwood'], RB, Fargo North 2026</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If you are looking for a Speed Demon of Fargo, you might want to look at [player_tooltip player_id='1590660' first='Mikel' last='Lockwood'] another running back that I like out of Fargo North in the 2026 class. Mikel doesn't just have speed either, he also is quite elusive with his change of direction and processes with his vision quickly. Around the edges Mikel shows when to put his burst in full effect especially when his eyes see the openings ahead. I cannot wait to get more tape on this kid call the 2025 season hs although undersized, you can't miss the speedster for the Spartans.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1292624' first='Corban' last='Youngmark'], RB/LB, Fargo Shanley 2027</strong> <a href="https://x.com/CorbanYoungmark">Twitter</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"style":{"typography":{"fontSize":"16px"}}} --> <p style="font-size:16px">A 2027 running back I am fired up about out of Fargo, is [player_tooltip player_id='1292624' first='Corban' last='Youngmark'] out of Fargo Shanley who has a sophomore was All-Conference selection. He also was one of my underclassmen standouts at the NDSU camp last Summer and has ideal size for a college level running back at 5'10 205 lb. Corban shows off the suddeness you want coming out of the backfield and waste no time with his vision and football IQ to show it off. He also is an enforcing linebacker that with his vision hits his gaps easily and make no mistake about it surely has the physicality at the point of attack that will intrigue college coaches on that side of the ball. The upside that intrigues me with Corbin is the development of his durability within the inside box which with a handful of years left of high school football I can't wait to see the improvement with that skill set. Surely a target out of Fargo Shanley that has a great chance to play on Saturdays.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
