Akron’s Fahrell Freeman: a physical 6-foot, 205-pound back still waiting for his breakout
Freeman entered Akron as a three-star recruit from Cleveland Heights and brings a sturdy 6-foot, 205-pound frame that fits a downhill, contact-friendly running style. In 2024, he redshirted and did not play, and available 2025 listings showed no game log while noting he was buried on the depth chart and dealt with an undisclosed availability issue at times. The upside is intriguing if you want a local power runner with room to grow, but the current fit is more developmental depth than instant-impact production.
