Coach Filani: "He was saying that they've been watching my film for a while and everything. He didn't go into too much detail on what they like about my game but he said that I'm a good player, that I'm one of the best running backs that he's seen. I would say that I'm a speed running back but I'm also a power back, I can get through the holes between the tackles and stuff like that."

Other schools standing out: "I'd say Oklahoma State is standing out, they call me once a week and we get to know each other."

Goals for 2020 season: "First I want to get more yards than what I did last year. I want to get better, get better enough for me to get more offers from different schools and put me in the best position to succeed in college."

Thoughts on ESPN Underclassmen camp: "I thought it was a good camp. Some drills I messed up in and I know I could have done better than what I did during the camp. All I can do is keep working and get better and better."

Staying busy during quarantine: "Just been working out every day, stay in shape. Trying to keep my body form and not get out of shape."
