FL RB Keith Byars II (Purdue Signee)

[OneBuckeye]

He has those lateral hops you can't teach. Different from the other backs we have in this class. As we have seen lately our running attack is based on patience and the ablity to cut and accelerate. I think he fits better in our offense then a guy like Dunn. JMO.

Heck...his dad is out of a job, lets see if we can get them both.

Love his acceleration when he hits the LOS...

Perhaps. Sun Sentinel said he had 'a dozen offers' and was noticeably absent from the Boca Signing Day. Methinks he had conditional offers that he didn't fulfill.

Byars a no-show
Noticeably absent from Boca Raton's festivities was running back Keith Byars II.
The 5-foot-10, 205-pound, three-star rated running back received offers from more than a dozen schools. Louisville, Memphis, Western Michigan, FIU and Bowling Green were all interested in the son of the former Dolphin.
According to Bobcats athletic director Lewis Burnham, Byars remains undecided.

Thanks!
Is that a prep school that will leave him with a full 5 years of eligibility left (like C. Jones and Mike Thomas)?

Yup
