is one I will be watching as our RB2 in that class. He doesn’t take long to get to his top speed, as the 5’11 185 pounder shows off quickly that he’s one that runs proficently getting downhill. He also shows the patience I look for when evaluating the RB position as Carson is one of the more sizable RBs in this 2028 class that also has great durability for his age, and I am sure there is more to come from an upside perspective running thru contact. I’ll be intrigued to watch to see the reps Carson puts together on Saturday in the pass game for sure.

of Grand Forks Central. The 5’11 185 pounder has good size for the running back position, but also shows off his durability that is only going to continue to grow in upcoming seasons getting more yards after contact. Carson has explosive vision in my eyes, that trends well in the inside box and also gets to the outside edges with good ease. He’s surely a running back one of my favorite running backs out of Grand Forks regardless of class as we head into his junior season.
