Let's Go Places on the Recruiting Trail: James Cook, Miami Central RB

July 21, 2018
Miami Central running back James Cook discusses carrying on his brother Dalvin's legacy as a top-100 prospect.

Dalvin Cook set the standard at Miami Central before becoming a top NFL rookie with the Minnesota Vikings. Now his younger brother James is carrying on the legacy. At 5-foot-11, 180 pounds, James ranks as a consensus top-100 prospect in the 2018 class. Miami Central has produced NFL backs Willis McGahee and Devonta Freeman, and James aims to extend that tradition. His long touchdown runs against national powerhouse Bishop Gorman showcased the speed that makes him special.
