Interesting. When did this occur? I know we recruited him out of HS really heavy but he had his sights set on first App State then flipped to Wake before signing with them last year.

Welome Transfer 3 star RB. Courtney McKinney from Wake Forest if this is true, omg!! this dude reminds me of a young "jim brown"! runs with power and with "speed"! omg, i couldn't even get half way thru his senior high school highlight video ( www.hudl.com/profile/4689688/Courtney-McKinney) before i threw my hands in the air and figured, "i have seen enuf!! didn't have to see anymore though there was plenty more footage to look at, hard to believe he had even more highlights. he has the same attributes as martin has. he has both "power" and also outstanding "speed". no doubt this dude is a friggin' "home run hitter"...

honestly, if this holds true, not too many fcs teams (if any) will be able to stop our running attack. its a scary thought for us to have both martin and mckinney in our backfield. wow, this ndsu game is now getting a bit more interesting...

Uhhh....if the Mckinney transfer is true then this kid needs his OWN thread and not one under Salahuddin.

Yep, he redshirted in '18 and played in just a handful of games as a redshirt freshman this past fall. If confirmed it would give us an unmatched war chest of top quality RBs behind a big powerful veteran offensive line. The ground game would be devastating.
For McKinney it's all about playing time and I can't really blame him for going into the portal. The backs ahead of him (a soph and two juniors) had tenure in the system but were questionable in a true talent comparison IMO.

Ok I'm satisfied. We're going to be pretty deep and really, really good in the backfield.
Damn good.

We had 6 foot 2 Tony Coles for a season when Fobbs was here. But of course we didn't use him right.
