“Jarvis is simply the best player I have seen in South Carolina for the last two years. He does so many things well. Yes, he is fast, powerful and dynamic with the ball in his hands. But what separates Jarvis is how hard he plays on every single snap. A lot of running backs can wear down or take plays off—not Jarvis.”
