Wake Forest's Explosive Sophomore RB with 8.9 YPC Breakout
David Egbe transformed from a limited 2023 role into Wake Forest's 2024 rushing leader, posting 1,239 yards on 139 carries with a staggering 8.9 yards-per-carry average and 15 receptions for 251 yards [2]. His differentiator is elite efficiency and big-play intensity; he doesn't just grind yards but explodes past the line of scrimmage, averaging nearly 9 yards every touch [2]. While his 2023 stats were minimal (9 carries, 23 yards), his 2024 surge proves he is a high-upside, active talent ready to dominate [1][2]. He is an ideal fit for teams needing a dynamic, explosive back who maximizes every opportunity, though his sample size as a true breakout is still emerging.
