Coach Alford is recruiting him. ND, MSU, & Rutgers are his favorites thus far.

 

[BeauBenken]

Wow. Those highlights.

Sign him up.

 

[Luckylucci]

This kid is really good, at least from what I've seen this far. Pretty surprised he hasn't garnered more recognition yet. Will probably do so in time.

 

[Jackalope1977]

Wow he's impressive! Like it.

 

[BeauBenken]

This kid will end up being a composite 4 star. That's my stone cold lock of the century...of the week.

 

[Johannes]

Agreed Beau. I love his balance, he runs through contact so well, and just elusive... kid can cut without slowing down. If Alford can't pull in Robert Washington or Demario McCall, I'd be more than satisfied with bringing in Abdul.

Even his sophomore film is impressive:

Named as one of Loy's top 5 "to watch" for 2016 Irish RB recruits along with McCall, Rasul, Washington, and Holyfield.

Also recently picked up offers from BC, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia.

 

[Crazy Balki]

I honestly like him more than McCall, though it's tough to tell by just film. He has a bit more of a frame to build on, whereas McCall has a long way to go if he wants to be a all-purpose back. Adams just seems a bit more further along at this point.

 

[Johannes]

Committed to Michigan State. Good pickup for the Spartans.
