Maryland’s bruising, old-school reserve fullback
Paul Lariviere is a 6-foot-1, 250-pound junior from Brooklyn Technical HS who Maryland lists as a running back, but the Terps describe him as a hard-nosed fourth-year player and valuable reserve fullback.[1] What stands out isn’t flashy stat production; it’s his size, physicality, and willingness to do the dirty work in short-yardage and blocking situations, plus the durability to stay in the mix after a knee injury once ended a season early.[1][10][13] If a team wants a tone-setter rather than a highlight-reel back, Lariviere fits that blue-collar role perfectly.[1]
