Terrific young man who was named team captain his sophomore, junior and senior seasons. When the NFL holds character at such a high level, Farrow has that end locked down. Originally set to attend Colorado before a coaching change derailed his initial plans and scrambled to find a school interested in him after committing to the Buffalos. He red shirted his freshman year as a safety, but quickly found himself in the offensive backfield not the defense. 

Terrific frame (5-foot-10 and 220lbs.) that translates into what type of running back typically makes the 53-man roster in the NFL. Has a solid build and looks the part. Runs north and south and brushes off arm tackles with strong leg drive and powerful hips. Has good hands and catches the ball naturally. Work ethic and intangibles are top-notch. Does a good job of keeping his shoulders squared and accelerates quickly when he sees a crease in the defense. Can make a man miss although he lacks that quick twitch ability. Experience on special teams and relished the idea of head coach Tom Herman getting starters to play on punt and kick coverage. Feel the best football of his career are ahead of him.
