Expert Analysis
Andy Pham | Prep Redzone Scout
Fifita is one of the best weapons on offense for Granger and showed that to be the case in the season opener against Orem. Against a top defense in any classification, he showed great wiggle, was elusive, had good vision, footwork, and made defenders miss in a phone booth. He will be an elite player in his final season.

Fifita returns for his final season and will be the bellcow for this offense. He shows good patience behind the line, has the necessary vision to locate the late-developing crease, and has the quick burst to get to that hole before it closes. Fifita does a good job of getting small through the first line and will seek to get to the edge where he can utilize his speed and elusiveness to make defenders miss in the open field.

Fifita has excellent size to carry a big workload. He has a quick burst and gets to top end speed within strides. Fifita has tremendous lateral agility and changes direction seamlessly. He weaves his way through traffic and with vision, anticipates holes opening up and sees cutback lanes easily. The combination of speed and vision makes him dangerous in open field and with the ball in his hands can take it to the house at a moment’s notice. Fifita isn’t just a speed back, he has power and excellent contact balance and shows good patience as a runner to allow his blocks to form. He doesn’t get antsy or impatient behind the line, he’ll slow play his way up to the line, ride the lineman and burst on through to the second and third levels. Fifita is a slashing back with excellent hip sink and power behind him, he is one of the best pure rushers in the state and has a ready made frame for the next level.
