Be a good speedster for us and could build on that frame to become a power back too

Great balance, good vision, runs well between the tackles, but doesn’t show elite speed on the tapes. I’m just wondering why he doesn’t have offers from any FBS schools.

He doesn't have elite speed.

His measurements as well as strength reminds me of a certain someone from GA that played well for us a few years back aka Aldreakis Allen. If we can get Uriah West and he stays the course and performs like Allen, he could be a BIG playmaker for us.

AA wasn't freakishly fast but boy could he bust one. Thousand yard rusher in 2012, all conference but couldn't get out of his own way off the field

Here's hoping Uriah will be a heap of trouble for Liberty opponents. 8)

HAd offers from ohio eku and marshall as well according to twitter and rivals. Rivals also lists him as a 2 star which would be our 3rd 2 star.

ASoR, how does this commit play into pur pursuit of a certain other 2018 back that has been discussed a bit on here?

He is really built. It looks like he ran track in the spring and noticeably added some speed. Great pick up for the Flames. A power running game is coming back to the mtn it appears.

In Toledo right now. Lynchburg is a more lively city.

Guaranteed we take atleast 1 more running back. My hope is we lock up Anthony Ballard Jr. from Tennessee. He is rated as the 4th best running back in TN. These two could be double trouble for opposing D's.
