Film Notes and Highlights
Khristian Boyd is good energy player who normally maintains good pad level and leverage against blocks. You’d like to see him engage first more consistently with OL. When he strikes first, he normally wins his rep. However, even when he’s late, he keeps his hands busy and himself in the play. His burst off of the line can improve, as can his awareness. *Finding full game film on Northern Iowa’s defense was incredibly difficult, and because of that, my scouting report on Khristian Boyd is limited.* – Thomas Christopher
