So whats the deal with Chuba Hubbard?
He's the Canadian running back that Oklahoma State just offered a scholarship.
Glad to say that I've received my second NCAA div 1 offer from Oklahoma state Cowboys #RideOn #GoCowboys pic.twitter.com/BUQjQZNh6V

Hubbard now has five offers: Oklahoma State, Tennessee, Syracuse, Washington State and Colorado State. But it's early. Expect that number to go up.
I'll tell you the deal with Chuba. The kid is FAST.
Check out some of his Hudl highlights. Remind you of anyone?
The 6-foot-1, 190-pound running back from Sherwood Park, Alberta, CA is a track star who finished fourth in the World Youth Championships clocking a 10.55 in the 100 meter dash.
On Chuba's Trackie profile he lists his credentials.
- 3x National Champion
- 4th Fastest Youth Sprinter in the World
- 100 Meter - 10.55 Seconds
He can ball on the gridiron as well.
Here are his stats per 247 Sports. As a sophomore, Hubbard rushed for 1,337 yards and fifteen touchdowns. This past year as a junior, he racked up 2,534 yards and 30 touchdowns, averaging a ridiculous 18.77 yards per carry!!!!
Huh?
Chuba seems to have a lot of raw talent which means he has a huge upside. Oklahoma State has done well in the past at taking physical freaks and turning them into ball players. The Cowboys hope they can cash in on their early offer to a prospect whose star should continue to rise.
