versatile BYU back with proven production and reliable hands
Katoa has been a productive, multi-purpose RB for BYU, finishing his Cougars career with 1,799 rushing yards, 21 rushing touchdowns, and 2,889 all-purpose yards, while also showing value as a receiver out of the backfield.[1][2] His differentiator is versatility: he led BYU in rushing as a redshirt freshman in 2018 and has repeatedly shown he can create offense in both the run and pass game.[3][2] For a team, that makes him the kind of back who adds steadiness, matchup flexibility, and real third-down utility rather than just straight-line volume.[1][3]
