I’ve seen his name pop up surprisingly several times on 2009 previews and mock drafts so I decided to research him. I’ve admittedly paid no attention to Pittsburgh since Tyler Palko graduated so I wasn’t familiar with McCoy.

Here are the vitals:

  • 5’11
  • 200 lbs
  • brother of Texans WR LeRon McCoy


And here’s the lowdown:

  • One of the most celebrated high school RB’s of the decade
  • Originally committed to Miami
  • Runs Darren McFadden’s famous wildcat offense
  • ran for 1,328 yards as a freshman
  • freshman all-american, 1st team big east
