I have heard Russell might well be the steal of the class & is a very good RB. Ran the wishbone in high school but an assistant @ his school used to coach w/ Tress & called Tress to inform him of his talent's. when the
OsU staff checked him out they loved what they saw and offered. apparently he has very good vision & his measurables are impressive. Also heard he is the kind of back that can be effective running between the tackles. i think he will be @ TB before Lennix, but Fred is another option given your worst case scenario.
