Expert Analysis
Hunter Tierney | Prep Redzone Scout
Isaiah’s not the flashiest back you’ll see, but there’s something steady and sharp about how he plays. He runs like a guy who’s been through traffic before and knows exactly where to go when things get messy. He doesn’t panic, doesn’t dance — he just finds lanes and hits them with purpose. And if contact is coming, he’s ready for it. He certainly doesn’t shy away from a hit, but he’s got enough shiftiness to make defenders miss too. Where he really catches you off guard is as a pass-catcher. Most backs his age don’t look that smooth getting in and out of breaks or creating separation on routes. But Isaiah moves like a receiver when he’s out in space, and his hands are reliable. He averaged 5.5 yards per carry last season without ever being the featured guy. At Perry, with that passing attack spreading things out, he’s set up to be the perfect complement — smart, tough, and capable of doing a little bit of everything.
