Aaron Schafer gives Cal Poly a throwback downhill edge at RB
Aaron Schafer profiles as a physical, between-the-tackles runner whose appeal goes beyond box-score splash. Cal Poly’s 2025 team stats show the Mustangs leaned on multiple backs, with Tyrei Washington and others sharing the workload, so Schafer’s value is in earning tough yards, staying reliable in a committee, and bringing toughness on a team that wants to punish defenses with volume and contact. The big question for a fit is whether your roster needs a steady, hard-nosed back who embraces the dirty work more than a pure highlight-maker.
