RuebenOwens

The most explosive runner and best pass-catcher among top running backs in the 2023 cycle. Checked in around 5-foot-11, 195 pounds as a senior. Dominates mid-level competition, rushing for 7,089 yards and 101 touchdowns over his four-year high school career. Had a huge junior season, totaling nearly 3,000 rushing yards and 46 touchdowns. Extremely efficient, averaging nearly 12 yards per carry for his career. Pairs very good long-speed with a high-end initial burst. Has run sub-11.0 second marks in the 100 meters and carries that speed over to the field. Regularly pulls away from the competition. Bounces off tacklers at the high school level. Has also shown advanced ball skills as a pass catcher in the 7-on-7 setting. Looks to have wide receiver ball skills and appears to be the most natural pass catcher among blue-chip backs in the cycle. Does not have a huge frame. Will need to add mass to his lower body to optimize leg drive and durability. Can continue to improve his lateral agility as he gears down to cut at times. Older for the class, turning 19 years old in the middle of his senior season.
