| Coming off a sensational junior campaign, Irons’ development was slowed last year due to injuries. Has room for development and could eventually grow into a starter at the next level. |
| Biography: |
South Carolina transfer who earned All-Conference honors after his
junior and senior campaigns. Ground totals last season were 198/893/4
with 10/78 catching the ball. Struggled with injuries throughout his
senior campaign. Posted career-best rushing totals of 256/193/13 as a
junior.
Pos:
Quick and elusive ball carrier with terrific football instincts.
Patient, shows good vision and follows blocks anywhere on the field.
Quickly cuts back against the grain, loses no momentum when he must
change direction and has a burst through the hole. Slashes off
defenders to pick up positive yardage and keeps his feet driving up
the field. Faster than his 40 time and can run to daylight in the open
field.
Neg:
Rarely breaks tackles and does not pick up much yardage off initial
contact. Marginal pass-catcher out of the backfield. Gives effort
blocking, yet gets minimal results. |
