FSU football: Importance of La’Damian Webb commitment
By Kelvin Hunt
Playmaker
A player isn’t named Mr. Football in the state of Alabama as a JUNIOR unless he can play. The kid amassed 3,242 rushing yards and 47 touchdowns in his 2016 high school year.
He rushed for 359 yards and five touchdowns to lead his high school Beauregard (AL) to a state championship. Webb was named the Alabama 5A MVP.
In his time at Jones County Junior College he amassed 940 rushing yards on 156 carries with 10 touchdowns.
He also contributed in the passing game with 12 receptions for 151 yards and two touchdowns. It should be noted he had this type of production in just nine games.
Webb is powerful with a low center of gravity at 5’8″ and 190 pounds. However, he has deceptive speed, wiggle in space and the ability break tackles for positive yardage.
He looks like a running back that could fit the Mike Norvell offense perfectly and it seems as though the coaching staff feel the same way since they went out and got him.
