Jahwan Edwards
Does a little of everything without one standout trait. He arrived as a 2-star recruit and has 1 seasons of production at Ball State behind him. One game to point at: 165 rushing yards and 10 receiving yards against Bowling Green — Week 14, 2014.
Play style
Plays within the scheme — consistent production without a dominant dimension.
Boom vs consistent · carry-yardage shape
Steady, not spectacular
Just 15.3% of his season rushing yards came on his 5 best carries — remarkably even — and he's stuffed on 15.3% of his carries. 16 carries for 36 yds vs Massachusetts; 28 for 165 vs Bowling Green.
Counted from the play-by-play, so a carry or two can differ from the box score.
Closer · Q4-with-lead carry share
Not actually a closer
61.1% of carries overall (262/429) → 49.2% of Q4-with-lead carries (31/63) — 74.2% of those in competitive (≤16-pt) games.
Counted from the play-by-play, so a carry or two can differ from the box score.
