Darius Ridener Darius Ridener 5'10" | 165 lbs | ATH Mccreary Central | 2029 State KY caught my attention when evaluating freshman year film. He is a true big play threat out of the backfield, using his explosive speed to hit the running lane in a hurry then run away from the defense on long runs. Ridener has also shown the contact balance to break tackles with ease without losing stride. He finished his freshman season with 72 carries for 437 yards and five touchdowns in nine games. Ridener also led his team in receiving with 20 catches for 269 yards and three touchdowns. He also made an impact on defense at outside linebacker, recording 22 tackles as a freshman. Darius also proved to be a reliable returner on special teams. Ridener should be a player to keep a close eye on as his role on both sides of the ball continues to grow moving forward.
