Explosive freshman Boise State RB with legit home-run speed
Ard arrives at Boise State with a reputation as a big-play runner: as a high school senior in 2024, he piled up 1,644 rushing yards, 22 rushing TDs and 2,028 all-purpose yards, while also contributing as a receiver and on kick returns.[7][8][13] Boise State lists him at 5-foot-10, 190 pounds, and recruiting notes plus EA’s College Football 26 ratings point to his defining traits: **speed**, **acceleration**, and **toughness** rather than power-back bruising.[4][7] He looks like a fit if your team wants an explosive, versatile back who can stress defenses in space and bring juice on special teams.[4][13]
