What They're Saying - RB Coach Benedick Hyppolite
“He’s one of the most dynamic players in South Florida and throughout this state. We are very excited that he is staying home here in the 305, being from Miami Central, and he will add a dynamic presence to our room. He’s a gamechanger and at any given time, he can finish plays and get into the end zone. ‘Mook’ can run in between the tackles, outside, run, catch, return punts and kicks. In everything he does, he’s a spark plug. He’s going to be a fun element to add to this offense as a dynamic piece for the future.”
