Malcolm Bowman brings a downhill, one-cut style to Northwestern’s backfield
Bowman is a compact, physical **run-first back** whose calling card is **quick feet, good vision, and the ability to press a crease and explode through it**; 247Sports describes him as a "one hard cut, downhill" runner with toughness and playmaking burst[5]. Northwestern’s roster lists him at 5-11, 190 pounds, and his St. Mark’s background shows production and efficiency at the high-school level, but there’s limited public evidence here of major college stat output yet, so he looks more like a developmental fit than a proven feature-back profile[1].
