| Allen has many super qualities like good speed, quickness, power, and elusivness. But more than anything he has great balance and he uses his balance to press forward - gain more yardage, make people miss or run right through defenders. Allen has the ability to stay on his feet after taking a tough hit(s). He maintains his balance through traffic up the middle or in the open field. He has a good stiff arm and the ability to hit the home run. |
| Biography: |
| One of the top running back prospects in the entire country, Allen ran for just over 1,000 yards in nine games as a junior last season. He averaged nine yards per carry against some of the best competition in the entire nation. He had 12 rushing touchdowns. He's one of the fastest players in this year's class. |
