RB Charles Scott Scouting Report
Charles Scott 6′1 234 LSU Senior
vs. Georgia 2009
Stats: 19 carr. 95 yds. 2 tds.
Game Analysis: Scott is a tough, physical runner with okay lateral movement and decent burst in the open field. He makes most of his big plays by lowering his shoulders and running over defenders, and that is exactly what he did against Georgia. He was consistently a hassle to bring down and though he had mostly runs less than 10 yards most of the game, he had two big plays in the fourth quarter that put LSU on top. The first was a 15 yd screen pass where he plowed his way to the first down. The second was a long TD run to seal the win on a play in which he broke a couple of tackles near the line of scrimmage and then accelerated to the end zone. Teams in need of a power back will love him as he is comparable to a poor man’s Brandon Jacobs.
