Big 12's Best Available Recruits: Running Back

Jeff Jones (h/t Scout.com)

We continue our series looking at the best prospects avaiable at each position today with running backs.  Many backs have already committed to Big 12 programs, so the talent available isn't elite.  If you can think of other RB prospects still available, leave a comment below because I have a feeling I left someone off the list.

Joe Mixon:  Mixon is one of the best backs in the country.  While he's from California and USC seems to be the favorite, Oklahoma is still in the mix.  According to 247Sports, he'll take a visit to Norman in October.

Jeff Jones:  Jones is another top 150 player overall who is committed to Minnesota right now.  However, his commitment isn't that strong and he's definitely looking around right now.  Iowa State is perhaps the favorite right now and JC Shurburtt of 247Sports today predicted that he'll sign with ISU.

Vic Enwere:  Isn't ranked in the top 50 at his position, but has plenty of offers including Michigan and Cal.  He doesn't have any offers from Big 12 programs, but I would expect that to change.

Larenzo Stewart:  A 3-star prospect from Spring, TX with an offer from Baylor, the school most recruiting experts see him going to.

Samuel Stewart:  A Cypress, TX native that holds offers from Texas Tech and Iowa State among other teams.

Robert Martin:  Martin rushed for 1800 yards and 18 TDs last year for Harrisburg HS in Pennsylvania last year.  West Virginia and Rutgers are the two favorites for Martin's services.
