Ball State’s Cody Mikulich is a physical, developmental RB worth watching
Mikulich is a 5-foot-11, 213-pound running back for Ball State who entered in 2023 as a walk-on, earned a redshirt, and did not see game action in 2024—so the intrigue is more about long-term upside than box-score noise. His frame suggests a downhill, contact-friendly style, and that kind of sturdy build can fit teams looking for a grinder who can absorb hits and compete in a crowded backfield. The catch: there’s no public game-production track record yet, so he profiles as a developmental add rather than an instant-impact star.
