Kid's originally from Orlando, so the draw to come back home is there. We ain't desperate for a back but he's definitely a guy you welcome if he wants in. Think about '23, a RB room with potentially Rooster/Don/Thad/Barnes/Fletcher would scare the **** outta any defense.....

Wonder if that Orlando softness has been baked out of him yet in the desert.....
 
Just watched some highlights and the kid checks off a lot of boxes. I didn't see him catch many passes so dont know about that part of his game but the kid has ideal size and great speed. He also isnt afraid of contact and he looks like he has a nose for the end zone. We definitely need to take a back this year and this would be a greets take at this point in the game. Ee need to add some chips to this router and getting a kid of this quality would not be bad at all. And we 100% need more backs on the roster. Look how fast our roster took a hit with 2 of our top backs going down. This kid is all ready college built and would be nice to have as a possibility as next man up if needed. JMO.

Wouldn’t surprise me if he switches us out for a USC visit. He hasn’t visited there yet officially and only 2 more weekends before he signs. Regardless, he aint coming here lol.

Im just glad some relationships are being built. Hickson is one of the guys I would think would stay. Mario doesn’t have a strong guy at RB coach and he’s already developed so many relationships/proven he can go against elite recruiters. Same with T-Rob. No one talks about how strong of a addition Hickson was.

Def wouldn't mind Hickson staying on.

If we can make a play then we might have the most talented backfield in the ACC next year.
 
We need RB who can make ppl miss like rooster we have these type of backs already with Franklin and brown
Seems much smaller than those two. Even having said that, I know it depends on the OC hire, but Mario likes to establish the run and we are probably going to need 5 solid backs to make it through a season.

I don't know if Cody Brown didn't get proper s&c but I found nothing impressive about his game.
