Former 5* RB...nice pick-up.

Was a 5* and #2RB in the class behind Noah Cain up until JR year in HS...
They both were surpassed by the likes of Emery Jr, Trey Sanders, Ealy and Charbonnet but Ford ended up at 5th and high 4* and Cain right behind him at 6th. He looked amazing as a underclassmen.
Can he play safety?

Speedy guy who couldn't get out of James Frankin's dog house. A couple of key fumbles early....

Oddly enough he went for 100+yds on 6 carries in his very 1st collegiate game.

Welcome experience, joins Estime, 2 young guys coming off injuries and a true frosh.
(no message)
So, who of ND’s promising young studs will be departing?
(no message)
None, experienced change of pace back with very good speed. Maybe help fill void left by Diggs

Always looking for the dig against ND Football, aren't you? Price had achilles injury,Diggs left,and
a red shirt freshamn and incoming true freshman who have not seen the field yet to know what we are getting.
Seems prudent given the scholarship availability.
It also allows Tyree to stay in the slot WR position if there is an injury.
If all are healthy, I very much doubt this guy ever sees the field in anything other than special teams...if that.
Price is coming off a major injury and Payne hasn't made it thru a season in 3 years!

I would think there has to have been more offered than just special teams play. Now it’s all up to
him…
Oh, you would think, would you?
He was offered a chance to compete, duh…of course. If he’s Barry Sanders 2.0, he’ll play. But we are very stacked at RB IF healthy. This move was in case we aren’t healthy. Wise move.
Probably picked up to fill the departure of Diggs. Not saying he will step into his role. Unknown
who else leaves. Between graduation and the transfer portal, 20 plus guys every year.
He couldn't get on the field while at PSU & they aren't loaded at RB
He's here to provide depth at RB or MF might be seeing him somewhere on defense.
I would think he’s replacing the loss of Diggs.

Close to same size around 6' 200lb back but with superior speed
(no message)
Really? I thought I saw his best 100 was like 11.4 or something like that..
not exactly blowing anybody doors off if that's true.
Yes, that's true he ran 11.4 as a 9th or 10th grader but he didnt run in many meets.
Its more his burst and how quickly he reaches top speed as he ran 4.47 in camp after his JR year and right under sub 4.4 (4.38) at Penn St. He's shown pretty good speed on long runs (81yd TD) but compared to a guy like Singleton he's a few strides slower over that distance but his burst from 0-30 is very impressive.
Last years freshman class, PSU has two studs that played a lot so most likely the issue was playing
time. He will have the same issue at ND.
Four 4* backs and a 5* back they managed to get over us who's excellent!
A Top 25 recruits and two others in the Top 150
Franklin recruits well but he’s a shitty in game coach.
(no message)
Very shitty, but yet they continue to flock and he's beat us out for 3-4 5* guys
(no message)
Sounds like Kelly minus the recruiting.

I remember when he was a MaxPrep AA as a Soph, he was a Top 10 player at the time

Top 100 player coming out of HS. I don’t follow PSU football so not sure what happened there. If you
are under 85 scholarships for the fall you might as well use any you have.
It's a good pickup 5'11 195lb shifty homerun back, weird career at PSU, 100yds in 1st game then nada
