Running Backs Jump Into The Spotlight At South Florida Combine

 MIAMI – One of the positions that college coaches routinely come to south Florida for are running backs.

Through the years the Sunshine State has been home to numerous runners who have not only impact collegiately but in the NFL as well.

While receivers and defensive secondary prospects always dominate the talent pool, college coaches are making extra stops to check out runners who can energize their programs – in an instant.

As the South Florida Combine had the chance to showcase many position, those at the Miami stop were indeed special.

Here is a look at some of those prospects who stepped up their game:

2025 - Elijah Dewoskin, RB, 5-10, 183, Pembroke Pines West Broward. 3.4 GPA. Another south Florida area football talent who will emerge as one many players that the Bobcats will use in 2023. While he got lost in the shuffle at times during his sophomore season, you can almost guarantee that this won’t happen this coming season for a program that advanced to the state playoffs. Runs hard on every play and knows how to block as well. The definition of a TEAM player.
