Prescott has burt onto the scene over the past 2 years and could be someone I still have too low, but has earned the love nonetheless. He’s an explosvie back who can hit the big play. Over the last 2 season alone Prescott put up 1842 yards and 22 TDs. Those were the only 2 years he played as well, so it’s worth noting that this could very well just be the tip of the iceberg.

Prescott has been glazed over. The southern Indiana running back has put together a strong senior campaign, rushing for 1,113 yards and 15 touchdowns with an additional 31 receptions for 338 yards in the passing game. The dual-threat tailback runs over defenders, bouncing off contact and maintaining excellent balance in space. St. Francis has expressed interest.

Someone I’m very high on coming into the season is the dynamic back out of Columbus North. I love the way he carries the ball. He’s got speed, vision, the agility you want to make guys miss, and the ability to re-accelerate with the best of them. I loved watching him be patient and as things developed in front of him, he’d hit the hole and maximize the run. There are times he tries to bounce it outside for the homerun, but if he trusts his footwork on the regular, those plays will clean right up and he’ll force the defense to respect his inside vision more. His versatility out of the backfield, and the fact that Columubus North makes an effort to get him the ball in space also point to good things ahead. 745 rushing yards with 7 TDs on the ground and 23 catches and 229 yards with a pair of TDs through the air is what he compiled as a junior, but for obvious reasons, we expect to see a big jump this fall.
