Uriah Oliver brings veteran depth and camp buzz to Savannah State’s backfield
Uriah Oliver is a veteran-style running back for Savannah State whose profile has long been built around quickness and playmaking upside; in 2019, Tigers coaches said he had been “impressive in camp” and could be a “home run” threat in space. He appears to be part of the current roster mix in 2026, giving Savannah State a familiar, experienced option at RB. The big question is usage and updated production, but the selling point is clear: Oliver’s value is his burst, open-field danger, and ability to create chunk plays rather than just grind out carries.
