After locking up a pledge in mid-March from Detroit area running back Romello Ross, the Chippewas added another pledge from Southfield Christian (Southfield, Michigan) back Bobby Banks.
A larger back, at 6-foot, 194 pounds, the 2-star prospect has a solid frame with room to grow. Explosive by nature, Banks is a big play threat on the field and played a key role in his high school's 10-win season a year ago. An under-the-radar type, no other school has offered Banks to this point.
Together with Ross, CMU has added a pair of promising young backs that have complimenting styles.
Unfortunately Banks was unable to be reached for an interview.
