Young Maine back with upside, but still an unknown in-game commodity
In the 2025 season, Mako Grant entered Maine as a 5-foot-11, 180-pound freshman running back from The Lawrenceville School, and by 2026 he was listed as a redshirt freshman on the Black Bears’ roster[2][4][7]. The key takeaway is upside: he has the build of a compact, workable back and fits the profile of a developmental player, but public game logs and stat pages show no available production yet, so the appeal is more about future potential than present résumé[1][3][6].
