Michigan State RB commit Brandon Wright called 'steal of the century' by his coach

It was late in the first half of a playoff game last fall and Euclid (Ohio) High School had a comfortable lead with the ball deep in its own territory.

The plan was simple - run the ball and kill some clock before heading into the locker room.

Eleven seconds and 92 yards later - after giving 11 defenders a look at the No. 42 stitched to the back of his jersey - Brandon Wright was celebrating with teammates in the end zone.

"Brandon hits the hole and it seemed like seven guys were going to tackle him and nobody got a finger on him and he went 90 yards for a touchdown," Euclid coach Jeff Rotsky said.
