UNC’s Young RB With Explosive Efficiency
Charleston French has shown intriguing upside as a North Carolina running back, with 2025 stats listing him as a 205-pound sophomore RB and UNC analysis noting he flashed big-play efficiency, including 8.4 yards per attempt at Carolina. The main reason to care is his blend of size and burst, which can make him a useful change-of-pace back if he stays healthy and keeps developing in UNC’s rotation. He looks like a fit for teams valuing explosiveness over volume, but the current sample is still limited, so his long-term value hinges on consistency and expanded touches.
