Linebacker Mike Smith and offensive lineman Corey Gaynor were used at fullback when the Miami football team absolutely needed one last season. George’s arrival has made Miami Head Coach Mark Richt and Offensive Coordinator Mark Richt very happy.
Returning running backs Travis Homer and DeeJay Dallas and George’s classmates Lorenzo Lingard and Camron Davis are also likely to be appreciative of George’s presence on this year’s roster.
George is ranked the top fullback in the Class of 2018 according to 247Sports composite rankings. He is only one of two fullbacks signed by a team in a Power Five Conference.
