Caring is Creepy: Have a seat Barrington Wade
COMPARISON: Iowa has three running backs in the class and one of them may be destined for a position change. Watching Wade run, he''s powerful and looks natural with the ball in his hands. He reminds this guy of Jewel Hampton, former Hawk and former free agent signed by the San Francisco 49ers. Wade, like Hampton, is more bruiser than blazer. Just what Iowa likes. Or, perhaps, he's more Anthony Hitchens, once two-star high school running back recruit that would prosper at Iowa at outside linebacker and find his way to the Dallas Cowboys.
