If Carr doesn't commit then 2015 RB Darwin Thompson (Jenks, OK) has a similar build (5'9", 185, 4.46) and skill set:

He has a really nice highlight video. Very shifty and fast back. Runs very tough and hits the hole quick. What's his interest in the Hogs?

Not sure. He's one of probably a hundred or so 3* running backs who never get their due. I have no personal interest in the kid I just saw him against Union on FoxSports and I looked him up. If he's qualified academically and is a good kid I'm sure some offers will start coming his way. Good looking prospect.

Everything I've seen shows Darwin is a good 20 pounds lighter.  Not a huge deal, but I imagine it 20 LBs could slow him down.

I live in Tulsa. I will keep a close eye on him next year. Sounds like a diamond in the rough with hidden potential.

If he's a 2015 player, he won't be there next year.

I'd love to hear any reports on Tulsa players, though.

Haha...Totally missed that part! Jenks and Union are the powerhouses down here. OU seems to hand pick their top players.

I was going off the numbers on his Hudl page which was updated after the season.
