Recruited as a WR he switched to RB after his redshirt year, then they told him to put on 20 lbs and moved him to FB, then had him drop the weight and go back to tailback after charles left unexpectedly. And he filled every role they gave him just like they asked. He just does so many things well I think he is the type of multi-pupose guy who could stick on a roster.

(And I coached him at Strake Jesuit just a bit so I'd love to see it).

Not a bad thought, he might get drafted.

I did not know you coached at Strake, I am a ST. Thomas alum, had a lot of friends go to Strake.

I only coached there 3 years before moving on. Ogobonaya was a QB and then WR on the varsity during our 2 overlapping years, while I was a freshman coach and DBs assistant so its not like I really had anything to do with coaching him. Honestly at that point my biggest varsity responsibility was being the "get back" coach.

And I will point out that none of the games with St. Thomas was very close .

Was that way also when I was there.
