New USF Preferred Walk-on: Tyler Pippens (Ola High School - RB) 2015

OK, I know he's a walk on, but I just watched his HUDL film.  WOW.

 

My quick reaction...seeing him in green, #5 was:  Lindsay Lamar, Part II.  He's small, but seems strong, and he has good speed (maybe not Lamar speed).

 

This kids runs quick hitters up the gut, runs pitch sweeps, played well in the slot and even threw a few nice passes.  He also had a few fake punts, downed inside the 10.  And his kick returns?  He is quick up field, and shows good vision, burst and evasiveness.

 

I don't want to go nuts, as I don't know the level of competition, but he looks VERY talented.  Unlikely he sees the field this year, but hope he gets a look at KR and gives us a spark.

Thought this kid had some shades of Ian Randolph. That was an unheralded transfer that worked out amazingly for us. Hopefully, this preferred walk-on can be a similar diamond in the rough.

 

Good call on that.  He was a very good return guy.

I like his video does remind me of Lamar.

Teams really starting to get some speed someting we haven't had in years.
