Speaking of good running backs, Lew Nichols III at CMU

His last 6 games he has rushed for 219 yards, 215, 163, 192, 136, and 186. He's a redshirt freshman out of Cass Tech. He had offers from power five schools, but not UM or MSU. This article was before he put up 219 tonight. I think the moral of the story is to recruit running backs who are IIIs. Carry on and thank you for listening to my cool story.

Nichols (Detroit Cass Tech) is third in the nation in rushing with 1,297 yards and 11 touchdowns, including 892 yards (150 carries) and nine TDs over the last five games.

It’s highly unlikely Nichols will reach the CMU single-season rushing record set by Brian Pruitt (1,890) in 1994, but he could reach the No. 2 mark held by Silas Massey (1,544) since 1996.

So is MAC level just an interview for the portal?

I saw those numbers and wondered the same thing.

You’re not getting a finder’s fee.

The new reality in collage sports. Tucker understands this and used it, which is why he is worth the money.
