The winner of the 100 and 200 meter titles at the Big 10’s Outdoor Track and Filed Championships, Raheem Mostert certainly has the athleticism to get into the Big 10 running back conversion.
He’s part of a duo of senior running backs that has been raising Purdue’s status from that of door mat to upset special in recent weeks.
Even though he’s been losing carries to his team mate and is now clearly a back up, he’s still the fastest man in college football, at least according to NFL.com.
