My overall speed and strength

What are you looking for in a college program?

A highly academic school with a great football culture.

Outside of your sport, what should coaches know about you?

I have a twin brother who plays Center, and both my parents were D1 athletes.

Hooks is an intriguing back at 5’9″ with his vision and instincts.  As a sophomore he had 750 rushing yards along with 500 receiving yards and 9 TDs.  Capable pass catcher that can take a screen pass for a long gain.  Displays natural hands and does damage with it!  Elusive runner with the ball in his hands. Slippery running after the catch or running in the open field.  Defenders tend to slide off him.
