Mookie Collier brings legit speed and burst to Marshall’s backfield
Mookie Collier is listed as a Marshall running back in 2026 with a compact build at roughly 5-foot-10 and 177 pounds, and his profile suggests a quick-twitch playmaker rather than a power bruiser[1][3]. He was a standout West Virginia high school runner, and his measurable athletic traits — including a reported 4.39 forty, 39.5-inch vertical, and strong bench numbers — hint at the kind of explosiveness that can change a game in a blink[11][13]. The big question is usage and workload, but if Marshall wants juice, acceleration, and open-field burst, Collier is the kind of back who can fit that mold[1][3].
