Ole Miss’s bruising, big-play back with old-school power
Cordera Eason’s Ole Miss profile is built on power, size, and production: as a high school senior in 2005, he rushed for 1,934 yards and 21 touchdowns, and at Ole Miss he became known for explosive pop games like 104 rushing yards vs. Auburn in 2008 and a 2009 season line of 36 carries for 133 yards and a score[5][10][12]. He was a highly touted recruit, ranked the No. 1 tailback in the nation by Max Emfinger and Mississippi’s 2005-06 Gatorade Player of the Year, which fits the tape: downhill, physical, and tough to bring down[5].
