Bethune-Cookman’s old-school dual-threat spark plug
Jimmie Russell’s Bethune-Cookman profile reads like a throwback playmaker: in the 2006 season he was a weekly MEAC standout after a 13-of-22, 187-yard, 2-TD passing day plus 94 rushing yards and a score, and in 2007 he again flashed with a 112-yard passing, 65-yard rushing, 3-touchdown outing against Savannah State.[2][4] His calling card is toughness, mobility, and big-game production in the Wildcats’ option-style attack—he can tilt a game with his legs as much as his arm, which makes him appealing if a team wants a quarterback who can stress defenses in multiple ways.[2][4][6]
