FIU RB Ben West: a proven, physical runner with 200-yard upside
Ben West’s biggest calling card is *burst + workhorse production*: he once became just the third FIU player to rush for 200 yards in a game, which tells you he can carry an offense when he’s rolling. The main differentiator is that kind of downhill impact—he’s the back you notice when the Panthers need tough yards and momentum swings, not just empty touches. For a team fit, he profiles as a physical, high-intensity runner who can punish defenses, though the limited recent public profile means his current role and health should be verified before projecting him as a featured option.
