Jeremiah Young brings proven backfield toughness and downhill potential to UAPB
Jeremiah Young is an Arkansas-Pine Bluff running back with a compact, physical build at 6-0 and 220 pounds, giving him the kind of power profile that can fit a run-first or short-yardage role well.[6] The challenge is that publicly available UAPB game production for him is limited, so the strongest evidence of his upside comes from his prior college season at Independence Community College, where he posted 46 tackles, 14.5 tackles for loss, six sacks, and two forced fumbles over nine games—showing disruptive intensity and competitive edge, even if those numbers came on defense rather than at RB.[3] That makes him a name to watch if you value toughness, versatility, and a player who competes hard, but not yet a fully documented high-volume offensive producer.[6][3]
