Citadel’s HJ Grigsby III: The long-levered, every-down back with upside
HJ Grigsby III is a 6-foot-1, 170-pound redshirt freshman RB for The Citadel who, as of the 2024 season, had not yet seen game action and has no recorded season stats yet. He entered as a versatile, every-down style back rather than a pure home-run threat, with recruiting coverage describing him as a sturdier complement to quicker teammates. The appeal is projection: if he adds mass and keeps developing, his frame and all-purpose profile could fit a physical offense that values reliability, toughness, and downhill consistency.
